Fiji — Whatever about the rugby insights in these Irish Examiner columns, you’ve got to award me points for some of the datelines; Fiji being the latest this week.

Of all the places I’ve been, this island is the ultimate wellness and mindfulness paradise without even trying. The people are horizontal. They are smiley and helpful and they give me a slightly belated understanding why some of the Fijians would always return back to Racing 92 a couple of days late from international duty. Who’d want to leave this place? I got chatting to some local fella yesterday on the beach. Said he was a brother of Toulon’s Josua Tuisova. Maybe he was. Everyone feels like they’re family here.
