Yesterday, I was back at Oxford for our annual Major Stanley's Trustees meeting. I played for Stanley's in 1976, 1977 and 1980 and should have played against them in 1981 whilst up at Oxford but I was injured. I selected the Stanley's XV from 1984 till 1992 and was then appointed a trustee. I missed most of the meetings between 1997-2009 because it clashed with Prime Minister's Question Time! But it is good to return to one of my passions - university rugby....
As for the game, Oxford University proved too strong for Stanley's winning 31-22 their first win of the season.
