Glad you played again - nice one. I dusted off the boots for a 10th anniversary match to commemorate a former teammate's passing (walking home in the road drunk after we celebrated a big win) so much tears, a few of sadness but mainly of laughter and great memories, were had.

These occasions are always tough to deal with emotionally.
I once played in a vets tournament to celebrate the life of a guy who died on a mini-tour in Brighton. The guy (not from our club) had got really pissed and then became separated from his team mates. He couldn't find his way to the hotel and decided to bed down for the night in a biffa bin. Sadly the bin was collected the following morning with him in it. Speaking to the guys he used to play with in the bar afterwards it was obvious they still blamed themselves a number of years down the line.

Only merit table. Really enjoy playing social rugby like this but find the only downside is you have to plan for having a shite, or in some cases dangerous, refs.
