The Once a Wasp 1st XV

[mike909]

Me and a mate formed a nomadic team called Bushy Park Vandals. Never managed to get any other players, in particular anyone that knew how to play, so we used to see how high we could kick the ball!

Bushy Park as in near Hampton Court? My old neck of the woods

Yes, that's the one. I grew up in Molesey, my dad was a mounted policeman, training horses at Imber Court.

At school in Hampton - used to pretend to fish on the Thames at Molesey, Bushy Park too, also useful for dog walking!
