The joys of living in Chelmsford means I can go and watch Essex play cricket for a couple of hours at a time if that’s all I have available in my day. With plans to watch London Skolars in the afternoon I decided on watching the first session of the cricket. It’s lovely having a … More Essex CC v Kent CC – Event 43
Now then – the title here may well be a tad misleading! I didn’t make my 2nd trip to France in so many weeks, with other commitments it was a trip too far. So I did the next best thing and travelled to Allianz Park to watch the game with fellow fans, is that worthy … More Clermont Auvergne v Saracens – Event 42
A Friday meeting I needed to attend at work means I was able to accept an invitation to go to Leicester for an unusual and exciting event. I had a leisurely morning – with a healthy breakfast (check my ‘lunch’ later!) before setting off for Leicester giving myself a good 3 hours to get there. … More Kings of The North – Event 41
After the glamour of Paris it was back to Premiership Rugby and back to Allianz Park. The season seems to be flying by and this was a key game. I’ve been ‘on holiday’ for the Easter period – I honestly have no idea how I manage to get myself organised, dressed and out the door … More Saracens v Leicester Tigers – Event 40
Easter Monday means rugby league, if fixtures fall right, and this year they most certainly did! Batley Bulldogs travelled to play London Broncos.

A tough European Champions Cup draw for Saracens was a heaven sent opportunity for me to combine 3 of my favourite things – My lovely daughter Alexandra, Paris and Rugby! Perfect! When the dates were announced the whole Easter weekend was given as a possibility so I booked Eurostar to travel on Good Friday, returning … More Racing Metro 92 v Saracens – Event 38
Having thoroughly enjoyed 2 days of cricket Good Friday brought a local derby between London Skolars and Hemel Stags. The weather was back to yuk having had a touch of Spring; Skolars are my closest rugby team round about 45 minutes away with a good run. That consist of the A12,M25, A406 with a smidgeon … More London Skolars v Hemel Stags – Event 37
With the 6 Nations and my gallivanting done it was time to return to Premiership Rugby and Saracens. In what has become a tradition they faced their opponents Harlequins at Wembley. Having changed my mind all week about how I was going to travel car was the option when it came to the day. In … More Saracens v Harlequins – Event 34
A trip to Scotland for the final round of the Six Nations saw me finish as I’d started with My good friend Monica accompanying me. I’d bought 2 tickets when planning my 5 games in 5 countries anticipating that she wouldn’t be able to resist a weekend in Bonnie Scotland. We both have family across … More Scotland v Ireland – Event 33
Having spent a weekend watching live rugby league it was back to 6 Nations rugby; that meant a trip to Cardiff via Bristol for me. I’d booked into an Airbnb in Cardiff Bay for 2 nights at a very reasonable £80. What wasn’t so reasonable was that it was cancelled 2 days before my trip! … More Wales v Ireland – Event 30
