How long supporting LI? |
I’ve lost track a bit, at least 2 years at Sunbury, and ever since, but I’ve been abroad in Nice and Sydney for a lot of the last three years. |
|
Best ever LI game (Excluding 2002 cup final) |
The slapping we gave Leicester in the cup match at the Stoop. How I laughed. |
|
Favourite LI experience off pitch (Excluding 2002 cup final) |
Any of the post match parties at the Stoop. They have all merged into one big hazy memory… |
|
How did you start supporting LI? |
A colleague at work thought I’d enjoy it. Spot on! |
|
What are your non-rugby pastimes? |
Weekends away anywhere (just seen Robbie Williams in Amsterdam!) shopping and cake decorating. |
|
Any Irish connection? |
Mother from Cork, dad from Kilkenny. |
|
Most likely to say? |
‘I really should be going - Oh go on then’ |
|
Least likely to say? |
‘Those Australians are good sports aren’t they?’ |
|
Tell us something about you we don't know. |
I went to a wedding in Bangkok a few years back, wearing my best outfit, an orange silk suit. Unfortunately nine Bhuddist monks turned up to officiate, wearing the same shade of orange. Not the best fashion decision I’ve ever made. |
