Stringer on new European mission with Bath

Peter Stringer still hankers after the big Heineken Cup days at Thomond Park.

He misses the white hot atmosphere which will grip the stadium when Munster take on Toulouse tomorrow.

Across the Irish Sea the now veteran will instead watch the game on television, although with the distraction of knowing he has a personal mission at the Recreation Ground on Sunday when Bath take on Brive in the Amlin Cup quarter-final.
