'Tis The Season....

Yesterday afternoon saw a gathering of some of Rugby’s best at the Temple for "Guido's Christmas Lunch".  Sponsored by Guido Danger with tons of support work by Ed Knaggs and Ian “4 Try” Jones ….the return to a sit down lunch was well attended.  Consistent with tradition, each person present stood and gave thanks while noting a memorable rugby moment in their lives. Memories when a young player new to the game …. questionable stories of greatness ….. happy tales of friendships remembered ….. this lunch was one for the ages

Happy Christmas Season to all and much CW love for however you celebrate this special time of year.

Be sure to check in on those close to you to be sure they know they are loved.
