Potential bonus you may run into Two Ton Ted from Teddington, my brother & I met him in 2000 after the Munster-Saints HC final and raked him totally mercilessly, fuc'king him up and down for his shoddy treatment of poor old Ernie.
To put the cherry on top, he was in company with an Irish girl whose uncle was a noted rugby writer Sean Diffley.......I think, maybe the name has left me for in my mind the journo was older than Diffley, she was most amused as he got exactly what he had asked for, poor fool thought to verbally castigate a couple of Paddies, beaten and in their cups.
Bad move Ted, poor judgement.
We retired early in the morning rising just to make breakfast as it ended, entering as Ted was leaving with as bright a "Morning Ted" as I could muster. Thing is the guy was not Ted......... I've no feckin' memory of what his given name was.
