As for the When and Where question:
It was, I believe at the end of 78 at an inter tour company rugby "tournament" held at Wimbledon Rugby Club in very muddy conditions.  I remember we played a NAT team. There was also probably teams from Vikings, Transit, Autotours and Contiki.

It was a hastily arranged motley Sundowners crew as the picture suggests, many had not played rugby before so it wasn't for the rugby purists.  We did need a good hooker though Darcy, I recall. I think Barry has Turbo Tom between his legs and I believe Chop played as well. That's me in the front right hand side. Vicar has added some more names in the picture section.I may have another action photos from this day.
After the game we adjourned to the NZ London Rugby clubhouse for the traditional after game
celebrations/commiserations drinks I can't recall if we had a shower though. All the pre game training had been conducted at the Albany so that that could be the answer to the Why question.
