It's 2061, and England rugby legend Martin Johnson dies and goes to Heaven. St Peter welcomes him and shows him to his new house, which is a little cottage surrounded by fields.
MJ looks over his garden fence and, in the distance, surrounded by majestic forests and fog, he sees a massive castle set in acres of perfectly manicured gardens. On each tower, and flying from the enormous battlements are massive Welsh flags, the gardens are overflowing with daffodils and leeks, 'Land of my Fathers' is blaring out through loudpeakers and groups of red dragons are flocking peacefully on the grounds. "Bloody hell, says MJ "that must be a real Welsh legend if I'm only in a little cottage. Is it JPR, or Gareth, or Phil Bennett, it must be Barry John?" he asks St Peter.
"No, no, comes the answer "that's God's house"
