Blodwyn joined Verwood RUFC following her purchase at Tesco's Winchester on the morning of England v Wales at Twickenham on Saturday 20th March 2004 at 9.18am. Somehow, she managed to survive the trip despite being disembowelled by Simon Banks! Thankfully, she was skilfully repaired by Alan Rex (yes, Alan not Kim - who said blokes can't sow) so as to be returned to her former glory following further sprucing up after a trip via the washing machine. Here's her Story so far.
Twickenham 2004
This all started out as a very pleasant experience for me. After being freed from the clutches of Tesco's by a friendly welshman with a particular liking to sheep (ewes in fact), I travelled on that famous pilgrimage to Twickenham which all Welshfolk long to experience. I was privileged to be taken to London Welsh where I was well pampered. Welsh choirs in full voice, good hospitality, as well as plenty of fresh grass to keep me going.
Holidaying in France August 2004
To All my friends and admirers at Verwood RUFC.
I have been having a wonderful time holidaying with the Rex family
and I am now fully rested and ready for the new season.
I have attached a few snaps just to give you a flavour of my
holiday and look forward to seeing you all at the matches.
Regards

It is all a bit confusing at times and they seem to have some very strange ideas about what a refined young lady, such as myself, should be doing on a bed of mushrooms liberally soaked in red wine but Sam & Ryan have made certain I come to no harm.

Chinese Year of the Sheep
Did you know 2003 was the year of the sheep? Famous people born in the
Year Of The Sheep:
Gene Hackman, Mikhail Gorbachev, Leonard Nimoy, Prunella Scales, John
Major & George Harrison
Those born in the Year of the Sheep are said to be charming, elegant and artistic, who like material comforts. A bit of a worrier, they also have a tendency to complain about things. Jobs as actors, gardeners or beachcombers would suit.
