One of the things I enjoy most about my job is organising events and I really don't do it as much as I'd like. Today was an event for O2 at Twickenham hence the England v Wales and not Wales v England in the title. There's always something a bit special when you host an event in a place with so much history and Twickenham certainly has that.
When I arrived at 8.00 a.m. I checked which entrance to use with a chap conveniently placed in the car park to provide assistance only to find he was Welsh! For the die hard England rugby fans who joined us today, this 'humorous' touch didn't go un-noticed and the several Scots who also attended found it highly entertaining.
Inside the stadium, this interesting installation is in the corridor near the main conference room we were using and this afternoon, when I was heading back from one of the executive boxes, I turned the corner to find a guy making a phone call. All very normal. Except he had placed his note book on the backside of the player on the left and was standing right behind said backside on his call. Up close, totally part of the scrum. I tried and failed not to laugh but as I didn't recognise him I refrained from taking a picture. Although I so wish I hadn't.
