Yup. Their ball handling let them down. Oh well, maybe next year...

Apparently that was the 8th win in a row for the Army. It was a complete walkover, which made the game itself a bit dull, but I got the impression that most people don't exactly go for the rugby itself anyway.

Drove through Twickenham about 7:30 last night. It was utter carnage - the Cabbage Patch was so full, there was a line of police keeping one lane of the road open, plenty of inter-service liaisons developing and plenty more puking.

Walked through back through about midnight last night, all the pubs were shut (normally a couple still open) and the streets were a state.

I don't think Navy have won for years...

It's not as far as I remember then. I used to live on a houseboat on "Duck Walk" when I were a snot nosed programmer working on St John's road Isleworth...

Those were the days...
