A week before making his First Communion Tom was at his rugby club for the end of season awards. The club doesn't have a player of the year awards but gives an award to all players. They do however have a few special awards. These are clubman of the year and most improved player of the year. This year a new award was introduced for tag dedication.The inaugural winner of this award can be seen to your left. His prize was a rugby ball signed by Martin Johnson captain of the world cup winning England team So Tom has held something touched by a world cup winner and clearly destiny awaits.
Tom's award came one week after his team won the SubStottie trophy at the Alnwick Rugby Festival. This was awarded for the battle of the 5th placed teams in his age group. It was his last tag rugby union game. However a month ago Tom represented his school in a tag rugby league festival. He was the only year 3 player in the first team. He did have the misfortune to be coached by his dad on the day but the team was still triumphant.
The reason that the photo is so blurry is that just as the team were starting their cha
mpionship winning match the heavens opened and everybody was soaked. Tom has adopted his usual position of standing in the back row (he is on the right).
But what I hear you ask has Jenni been up to? In general it has been her usual idiosyncratic approach to life and the occasional bouts of total chaos.
Meet Jenni the bag lady...
Jenni the mistress of chaos...
and finally Jenni the style icon.
More to come soon.
