Travis (supported by Kings of Leon)

I'm not exactly what you'd call a "fan" of Travis, but we went along to this gig out of interest more than anythign else as it was the first time Alexandra Palace had staged a gig. I was, I admit, more excited about seeing Kings of Leon in support, but was pleasantly surprised to chat with Rick Wakeman in the crowd as his son, Adam, is a session keyboard player with Travis.

Varsity Rugby Match (Cambridge vs. Oxford)

The first and, sadly, probably the last time I'll get to see the Varsity Match as it's always played when I'm at work. I went with Simon, Stuart and Matt and stood drinking Tetley's surrounded by huge crowds of Rugger Buggers from Cambridge. Gosh! What a bawdy lot! At the end of the day, we drew...but as we'd won the previous year we got to keep the trophy. Oh, and at half time they paraded the World Cup. Cool!
