Now, this is going to be one of those unusual ‘events’, probably more like an article than a blog too. With a journey to The Stoop to make I decided to multi-task. I very clearly have an interest in the work carried out by Saracens, but also the link between the club and Sanlam Private … More Sevenoaks Rugby Club – Saracens Camp – Event 119
After an evening watching women’s international cricket it was back to the men’s game. Essex faced the might of Yorkshire in their Royal London home quarter final.

With uncertain weather … More Essex CCC v Yorkshire CCC – Event 118
Having to wait in for my shower to be fixed I was going stir crazy – the man turned up at 4.30 pm! The rain had been falling all day and yet the clouds started to clear and a bit of blue appeared.

Day 2 at The Oval had me feeling like an excited child! A day sitting in the Pavilion, albeit in the shade! I still have to pinch myself when I find myself in such places, I am easily pleased! (A warning – the photos are a bit all over the place – that’ll teach me … More England v Australia – The Oval – Day 2 – Event 114
And so the end of the summer beckons and the final Ashes Test at the Oval along with it. As a Surrey and England member I’d taken advantage of being guaranteed my seat and bought tickets for the first 4 days. I later added Day 5 to my haul of Ashes tickets. What chance I’d … More England v Australia – The Oval – Day 1 – Event 113

This Event is somewhat unusual, amongst the many press releases I get the lovely people at Premiership Rugby I had a media invitation from Harlequins. A chance to go and watch them train at the Surrey Sports Park and be amongst the first to lay eyes on the new shirt. I had a free day … More Harlequins Training, Shirt Launch – Event 111
