OC's Rugby heads to Bristol


A cold crisp day in Bristol with a cutting ice wind saw a motley crew head down the M4 to our teams birth place of Clifton College for the annual OC London vs OC Clifton college Christmas match.
Despite an on/off, 3 year relationship with the OC's this was my first time to Clifton College, an amazing back drop for our game. Defeat over the past 3 years had lead the former, genuine members of the OC team to rally a strong team. The result went only 1 way as a lack luster Clifton team buckled & conceded 2 tires & 3 penalties without reply.

Our Black Tie post match dinner convened at the Clifton Centre started off with a quiet , gentle pace but quickly slid down hill into a "how-much-can-you-eat-in-one-mouthful" competition. Karina looked fantastic in her evening dress as did Seth dressed in chocolate sauce!

Fortunately for the on hand staff we transferred location the the Lizard lounge down town before continuing the festive pre-Christmas celebrations. Other picture here is Huw modeling the Man of the match "Golden Socks" I'm just not sure if he knew exactly what to do with them though as I'm sure beer holding gloves are illegal retire on a rugby night out.
