Rugby

A beautiful frosty morning.  We got an early message to say the rugby pitches were frozen, but playable, they were in fact soggy when I got there.  It was an early start for rugby – which I assumed would mean an early finish.  I got that wrong.  It was a mini tournament,  and BB’s team played well and BB himself played very well.  They had a great morning of rugby – good competitive play, finished off by mixing  the players up from the three teams for a  final fun game.  There was some great play in that game.  BB was buzzing afterwards and talked us through his three tries!
 
My plan for a late morning run had gone out the window, so it became an early afternoon run – it was glorious, and at least the morning ice had all gone.  TT had marking to do, so later I headed out to get a few things from the supermarket, including something for BB’s tea.
 
Later, we left BB with his tea in the oven as TT and I were meeting friends for a postponed Christmas meal.  Unfortunately one couple dropped out due to covid, but that just gives us an excuse to go out another time.  We had a lovely evening.  it was lovely to catch up over good food and wine.  It wasn’t a late night, but I was weary when we got home and went straight to bed.  I left TT drinking whisky, being supervised by BB.
 
This is BB and team doing some training between their matches.  BB is second from the right in red.
