How I Spent That Special Day - by Cybergoblin

The Powergen Cup Final day - started with Guinness, continued with Guinness and ended with me sleeping past my stop on the train and sharing a cab back to Bexhill with a 50 year old blonde who insisted on feeling me up.

Apart from the result, the only other thing worth mentioning is the total Guinness consumed on the day (a grand total of 13 pints - beaten by my mate Mark who scored 15) and the singing contest I had (on my own), blasting the Fields at the top of my voice in an attempt to drown out 80 Saints fans' chanting "Oh when the Saints........".

I was quite happy with the result, they did stop singing, if only to tell me to shut up.

The two guys behind me in the photo were Rugby virgins, the one on the right is coming back for the Newport match, the one on the left bought a shirt on the way out, swearing that he's an Irish fan for life.......
