INJURED duo Besart Berisha and Michael Duff are making good progress in their recoveries from cruciate knee ligament surgery.
Both players went under the knife within three weeks of each other and were subsequently ruled out for the remainder of the season.
But boss Steve Cotterill is pleased with the progress they are making.
"Duffo's learning Albanian and Besart's speaking Irish, so they're getting on all right," he asid.
"Both of them will be out for this season. There's a lot to those cruciates - it takes 12 months for that graft to properly be rock solid."
