Well that's that, emotional farewells, to the airport and awaiting evening flight. Met five members of the team, all very nice. Thanks to all for your kind words, support and just being totally good friends.

Flight was a bumpy ride for most of the 13 odd hours, arriving Buenos Aires 0830. Mini bus to our hotel which is in a run down street just out of town. Stayed awake for lunch but succumbed to an afternoon siesta. Hit the ground running tonight, met 14 team members, a nice selection of Brits, Aussies, French etc Evening meal just across the road consisted of an amazing steak and a bottle of Malbec red wine, all for £12, can't be bad.

Tomorrow starts for me at 1000 to a local bar for a day of rugby, unfortunately there's no Welsh to have a bit of banter with. :(  could they surprise us playing NZ, we'll see.

Well that's it time for lights out, sharing a room with Jeanie (from the Lake District) Robin (from Guernsey) and Ken (from N Ireland) who's asleep and already started farting.....happy days!!!

  1. Comment from Jonners: Are the nights a bit chilly down there? If so then the obvious solution will be to snuggle up to Ken and take advantage of the warm air.....
