A much better game - after we missed the embarrassing ENG v SA pool clash, we went to the ENG v Samoa game. Prepared for the worst after the display against South Africa, we were pleasantly surprised to see that yes, the English team do know how to play.
This was our first game (but not to be our last) seated in a corporate box, right on the halfway line. After putting up with alcohol-free beer last time, now we were quaffing champange!
As we waited for the game to begin, a 'friend' of Dennis and Raeleen's dropped into our little box. The box was barely big enough for him, let alone the rest of us... their friend was Martin Johnson, captain rom the 2003 England team, who had presented them their prize a month ago!
