| It was SO HOT!! The scrums must have been sweltering! |
The rugby day was extremely
well organised, right down to – the weather!
It has been raining a lot recently, and a heavy downpour would NOT have
been a god thing, for the players or for the spectators. But it didn’t start pouring until 6pm by
which time everything was done and dusted, home and hosed.
When Ben and Rose
got married, in October 2013, it had been raining torrentially every day for
two months. The wedding would not have
been a glittering success in the rain…but for the two days they needed for their
reception and for the BBQ the following day – the sun shone! Maybe Ben has a weathergod connection!
We had a very good
place to sit, under a shady tree just near the food tent, with comfy chairs and
a small table. Perfect!

| Much falling |
The day, for us, was
very much about hats…
Saigon 10s caps
for day wear…
And traditional Vietnamese
coolie hats for dinner wear.
Most of the people
we met were expats very surprised to find us there. “How did you know to come here?” they said,
amazed. Well…we were lucky!
But I did make friends
with some lovely Vietnamese girls at the next dinner table.
