Today, it's the Melrose Sevens.Preston Lodge get two free hospitality tickets from Kukri, our kit supplier and the Committee have asked me if I would like them as a special treat.
Yes, please!
It's not that easy a decision to make as it's our own Sevens tournament today as well but it will be a good day out and just what we could do with given the news this week.
And the famous Fijian sevens star, Waisale Serevi, is making a farewell appearance, guesting for one of the teams. In his prime, he was the best, but today . . . . well, I'm no' sure he would make it into PL's second seven. It was good to see him though.
It was also a fantastic social occasion where Toffs and Smurfs and us mingled seamlessly in the crowd.
Although it was a braw, sunny day it got very cold later on and we left before the end. Instead of coming straight home though, we went for a run through the Border countryside, down past Selkirk and then over the hills to Peebles where we got fish suppers and ate them on a country road just out of town.
Runs in the car like this seemed a long, long way away in deepest, darkest January.
Another milestone is chalked off the list.
