Commonwealth Games Rugby 7s

Spent all day at Ibrox Stadium. Had great seats for the morning session.  Enjoyed the atmosphere as we cheered for the Kiwis!  The Glaswegians cheered for the under dog! And booed for the Aussies and Kiwis!! As well as the English and Welsh. We tried not to be too offended!


Between 3 and 6pm, went back into the centre of Glasgow on the free shuttle bus. Noseyed around the shops and had an early dinner before heading back to the evening session.  Unfortunately had the worse seats ever... Back row of the tallest stand with limited vision and as hot as a sauna.  Errol very assertively, approached the steward who was ok about us grabbing some seats further down.  Luckily the ticket holders never turned up so saw most of the games with good view!  Sadly heard that we only achieved a silver medal in the final, losing to South Africa :-( 


Today we did the hop on hop off bus tour! Visited the National Museum and Grayfriers Bobby along with lots of walking.  Went to a stand up comedy evening after dinner at the Hard Rock Cafe!
