It was my first time at Webley since the rebuild, actually a pretty good job has been done.  Thw wife, some friends and I managed to get seats right near the front, so near that I shook hands with one of the Warrington players after the match.   :y

Evening spent by the Thames in Richmond, a fantastic day!   8-)

Actually I like both disciplines of rugby but if I had preferences I prefer to watch Union but prefer to play League.  League is more violent, requires more teamwork and ball handling skill, and you need to be a lot fitter than you do for union.  Being a big lad the violence is great fun, esp as I am 115KGs (down from 125) I am a gentle bear off the pitch though.....honest.......   ::) ::) ::) ::)

I am currently in the process of undoing the result of 12-14 hour days in Germany and beasting myself on the fitness so I can start playing for Cobham, the local League team, next season  :y
