So this was a friendly arranged in the break during the six nations. That said I am glad I saw Connaught play. One bit of gossip is that is London Irish- will be playing Connaught and South African teams  I was disappointed there were no pyrotechnics. It was a very damp night indeed it rained for several hours non stop. The heat of the pyrotechnics would have helped I do like the blazers worn by Harlequins staff. They are snazzy.  There was not the crowd I thought there would be. Despite the game being officially sold out- I was frustrated in my quest for an aisle seat. I sat behind a copper, and his pals. Next to some teenagers.
