It is not only in detective fiction that criminals return to the scenes of their crimes. Journalists also experience a perverse compulsion that draws them back to past misdemeanours.
And in that very context, nothing has quite the allure of the Siren voice of a hideously inaccurate prediction.
Off the back of an exhilarating and somewhat exhausting Autumn series, Rugby Unions international focus is now shifting firmly to next years RBS Six Nations. Off the back of their hard fought 15-10 win over the reigning world champions, Scotland will be more confident than ever of retaining their title and winning their third grand slam.

So it was that I tentatively opened the computer file of a column I had written a year ago. Based on Scotland's performances in their autumn international series, I had argued then that nine Scots could be considered either probable or certain to be members of the Lions squad that would travel to South Africa six months later. At least three, my argument went on, would walk into the Test side.
So against that backdrop I can just about resist the urge to proclaim Scotland as the red-hot favourites to win the next Six Nations Rugby on the basis of their recent performances at Murrayfield. Yes, they notched two wins from three matches; yes, they moved up a place in the world rankings; yes, their victory over Australia ended a 27-year losing streak; and yes, the players seemed galvanised by the coaching of Andy Robinson. But we know only too well that seeds sown in autumn do not always sprout in spring.
Robinson, in fairness, said as much himself at a private briefing at the team's Edinburgh hotel on Sunday morning. Scotland, he reminded us, had high hopes and home advantage going into their first games in the 2008 and 2009 Six Nations, but they suffered crushing defeats on both occasions, battered on the scoreboard and in the mind. They lost 27-6 to France in 2008 and 26-13 to Wales in 2009. In both years, they finished the championship with just one win to their names.
