I love rugby people. Period. They are the nicest, kindest, most caring people.

Why? Because, via a good friend, I discovered that the RFU provides free (yes, FREE) tickets to disabled people to matches a Twickenham. It's on a ballot scheme, so no guarantee of tickets, but today I saw England v France, from the front row, sitting in my wheelchair, my elder son beside me (as my carer) for no charge. Zilch. They even provided free parking. How many other sports even bother to think about doing that?

It was a wonderful experience.

And now I am looking forward to England v Scotland in a week's time.

I really, really, love rugby people.
