For those of you who want to buy shirts remember the Tani Testimonial Committee can't take credit cards so remember your cheque book

It's all very exciting isn't it? Although I do think that if I really put my mind to it I could could up with some things that could go in the 'what more do I want?' category!

LOL I agree with Batquin we could definately add to the list of wants!
I have pre match nerves already - my friends are hoping I trip on the run out - aren't they nice!

Babs - spoilsport! 
Rugbychick - just hold on tight to your player's hand. Hopefully that will ensure no tripping up!

Good plan - are we allowed?! I did think of that but then I don't "do" running so have visions of Andy G running fast and me being dragged along on the floor behind him!! lol

For those who weren't present last night, you missed a treat (and I'm not just talking about the Samoan haka!)
There were 9 tries by Quins, with the final score 59-0. I'm currently writing the match report, which I'm hoping you all enjoy, but may take some time! (when you read it, you'll understand)

Cracking game, and a lovely send-off for Tani.

The Jolly Hog was sold out by 7.10pm. 
I'd only had breakfast to eat on Friday, so had to go boozing in Richmond on a completely empty stomach.

The Hog Baps were excellent.
Glad we got there early, just as the gates opened, as there was quite a queue later.

Talking to Olly's brother, he said it was just mad. With only 800 tickets sold in advance they weren't sure they'd even shift what they had. The walk up crowd was huge, and so they finished easily half an hour before kick off!

I arrived just in time for one of the last pork rolls
I was amazed how quickly they sold out but they are very good
