I'm half Northern - I was of course referring to the danger of spoiling the landscape. It does look like a nice place to spent a Saturday afternoon though. As long as it doesn't rain.
You want to get yourself down to Henley. That's a lovely little ground, and the town itself can't be beaten for a relaxing time. [/b]
We were really lucky, it started raining just as we pulled away in our car. It was a bit windy but other than that it was a perfect day for a rugby match.
Waterloo won 24-18, brilliant field-length interception try by our Spanish scrum-half Pablo Freijoo (who I think used to be at Leicester). Played most of the second half with 14 men but held out resolutely.
Will add Henley to the list.
Found this that John Inverdale wrote in the Telegraph :
"To be among a large crowd at a thrilling National League match at Wharfedale Rugby Club with the sun beating down from a crystal blue sky, the Yorkshire Dales rocking and rolling into the distance and lambs gambolling in the fields, with a decent pint of beer in hand (optional) was to have found sporting nirvana."
