Quins; back to the plan.

A crazy rugby weekend.


Saturday started off red then ended up taking the boys out for something, let them decide as a treat, they chose Pizza Gut. ( I hated it, salad bar was rank and not a thing on the menu very sw friendly, ended up with loads of salad plus some naughty bits and a pizza thin crust...

Had a massive day, from Kent to Gloucester to pick up 2 for a S W England colleges Rugby League trial in Bristol...... Then back to Gloucester to drop one off, bring son back to lay in a union cup final on Sunday morning in Kent, put him in a train Sunday afternoon. We are all knackered., but well with it , trial went well, find out later in the week if they got through and his team won the cup final.

This turned out to be the week from hell as far as SW concerned...... A trip to Europe, a do at an Embassy , another unbreakable engagement then a fiftieth birthday. I'd to say that there were sw friendly options that I were on offer and that I stuck to them.....unfortunately not, it was all so lovely and the company fantastic. Yet again, trying to get back on track. Never give in, always tomorrow .
