For a long time my husband and I have wanted to go to Twickenham to watch a big rugby match so in January we bought tickets for the Heineken Cup Final to be played this Sunday hoping it would be a team we had heard of! Our 15 year old daughter said she would put up with trip and come with us. Saturday is to be a shopping trip to sweeten her up! Well..... today I have received notification that I have won 2 tickets to the Parker Pen Final to be held on Saturday!! What do I dooo? Let hubby take someone else and do the shopping trip? Farm out Daughter to friends for the day and go with hubby? What would you do? Jacky :-) :-(

I too would go to both games. Maybe a bribe of a shopping trip plus a takeaway/vidio the next week might work ! Elaine x

When daughter was told about tickets, she said straight away that we had to go. She'd be ok and would go shopping with her friends. Bless her. A Rugby week for us as my 10 year old Grandson has been chosen to play as a forward for his school (in Wales) in a tournament this Saturday! Jacky :-)

Well Jacky, another heart stopper, it would have hard without 4/5 french substitutes and a half french ref, a few dodgy decisions, but the Wasps never cracked, great! After this weekend, only a flight to the moon could compare with this one, good luck, still bloody envious, luv, Derek in France
