Cambridge Cluster

Image via WikipediaAnother great day at Cambridge Rugby Union Football Club with a win by the 2nds XV at home and news of a win by the top team at Otley.  Players who can afford it, go to Core Cambridge – a centre of excellence for injury rehabilitation and the development of athletic performance – to get the body beautiful and keep it that way.  First they teach you how to run!

No doubt it produces fitter (in both senses of the words judging by the excited ladies on the touch-line) but we old soaks remember the busy bars and companionship after the match particularly when you were paired for a drinking game with your oponent with whom you had recently been exchanging “hand-bags”. Now the supporters leave early and the clubhouse is hired out for weddings and wakes – not too many of the latter on a Saturday evening, fortunately.
