The Final Day

I seem to have lost the cable that links my camera to USB - if anyone finds it in their bags please let me know and then i can upload the last of the pictures.

The final day was relativley uneventful. All the lads who were found guilty in the tour court completed their punishments. The highlight was Jordan Lowther who spat his dummy out at The Paarl game in front of hundreds of bemused onlookers.

On the way to the game we were also interviewed by South Africans sports channel. That makes it 3 tv appearances for the tour (Coronation Street, Western Province game on Sky and this). The show (called "Classic Clashes") is due to be aired on monday but you can watch it online at www.superschools.co.za or you may be able to catch it on utube.

The match however was far from a classic as both Paarl Gym and Paarl Boys engaged in a droll kicking duel. The spectacle was amzing though as 20-30,000 people descended on the stadium to watch the main event (the Under 19's game).

From there we went to the airport and had an overnight flight back to the UK - all safe and sound back in Mirfield by 11:30am.
