Yep, great result. 20 years since the last win at Twickenham. I think England contributed by losing their way a bit in the second half, but take nothing away from the Welsh boys. This, speaking as an Englishman living in Wales and just coming home from the pub, having watched it with them. There's always a great atmosphere in the pubs here when the rugby is on and no animosity, unlike the game with the round ball.....
In fact, didn't Wales beet England in 1999 at Twicker's! I'll check up.
Wales have beaten England in London, in the last 20 years, but while they were playing home games at Wembley, due to Twickenham being rebuilt.
Er, might have been the Millenium stadium being built, can't remember, but definatley played at Wembley, watched the match in Courcheval, slightly over-refreshed.
t'was indeed a Wales home game at Wembley. I know cause I was there!
Scott Quinnell at 8 peels of the back of a Wales line out in the England 22, drops into the 10 slot, sucks in the England defence, pops to Scott Gibs on the burst from 12 who proceeds to sidestep 2 (if not more) of the oppo, raises a hand to the crowd before finishing the move with a flourishing dive. Jenkins slots the conversion. Wales victorious.
I got the call for a ticket for that match the night before. Cost me a dinning room table and chairs to keep the wife sweet.
Happy Days. Oh, did I mention 2005, sat behind the posts in the north stand watching Gav kick for glory. We guided that one in with Hymns and Arias.
