Please may I thank everyone who helped to make the visiting veteran players from this prestigious Romanian club so welcome.

I would particularly like to thank Sue Riley for accommodating two of them at Riley Towers; all those who attended the fund-raising welcome dinner on Thursday; all those who donated to the Romanian beer fund; Eric P-B for providing transport to Wasps; Dave Larham for arranging discounted tickets at Wasps; all our players who beat them on Saturday morning and the referee, Peter Dickinson; Nick Morrison for drinking with them until 2am on Friday night! Many thanks to all.

Sayings of the trip:
1) Octavian (their huge ex-international prop): "Tonight Chris, we drink. Tomorrow, I break your legs!"
2) John Slade: "This palinka goes straight to my plonker!"
