Trip to Wales 2006

Official tour Rugbyclub ‘t Gooi - CYMRU 2006

2006-12-31T12:22:00.000+01:00

Legends,

Welcome on board and glad you all made it in time! Your journey has begun and for the next 4 days you will be dedicated to a group of 50 male and primarily overweight beer drinking gentlemen behaving like animals. Finally escaped from the daily jokes at the office, 2 hour traffic jams, tough training sessions on the rugby paddock and/or usual fights with the miss’. The next 4 days you will spend day and night with your mates from Rugbyclub ‘t Gooi and more specifically your newest best friend at the club; i.e. your buddy!

In the past months we have put some work and dedication in trying to organize a tour that would not only include rugby, but would breathe rugby! We believe we have succeeded in organizing 4 days that for some of you feels like the ordinary life back home (Kiwi’s seem to be quite in love with the game…) but for others clearly will bring another dimension to the great game of rugby. It will be no surprise that there is only one venue in Europe to visit: WALES!

The hospitality we already received from the two clubs (North Peterthon and Llandaff North) has been overwhelming and a tribute to the true spirit of rugby. But please have no illusions, our dear hosts may look friendly, they will definitely give us a hard time on the pitch and try to make us feel as miserable as possible, and rightly so!

But I feel we are in a unique position to write some tour history for ‘t Gooi! The size of the group is a great reflection of the spirit and diversity at our club and I believe many clubs worldwide would be very jealous at making a tour with 50 of your mate including: 6 different nationalities, 80% of the 1st XV, plenty of Golden Oldies, famous game breakers from our 3rd XV, two Colts, etc. In conclusion: a great bunch of guys to have a great weekend.

Finally I would like to thank Hans, Friso and Macca in helping me making this tour already a success!

Enjoy, Dirk, Friso, Andrew

Tour Rules and its officials

2006-12-31T12:19:00.000+01:00

While many people might have been on trip before but also some have not had this great opportunity, it could be so that some of us might feel lost or even worse left alone amongst this strange melange of tour members in this strange and odd Country called Cymru. As we do not want this to happen, at least minimize the risk to a minimum, there are (“Oh Thank you lord!”) some tour rules. These rules will guide us during our times in Wales of need. While rules need to be safe guarded, there are Bobbies to make sure we will obey……... Besides these Bobbies we also have some other officials for making sure the Tour will become what we want it to be: One hell of a good time!

First the rules:

1. Once outside in the open air: always dress properly. Number One’s (jacket and club tie) are required before and after the matches. On all other occasions we wear the special tour jackets.

2. If one starts a new glass (of any substance….) one is obliged to say cheers uttering the following words: “Proost and cheers my magic friends!” while holding the glass on the top of you head.

3. You should always be on time if a time has been set by the Tour committee.

4. Buffalo rules apply.

Each time a rule is not obeyed, a fine of 1 (one) euro will be collected by a Bobby.

Then the officials:
Bobbies: Equipped with a visible collector box they will collect each fine that has been spotted by anybody during the tour

Songmaster a.k.a. To m Jones. Tom Jones will be backed by 5 to 6 cheerleaders (for him to choose randomly at the spot at any given moment during the tour) to lead us in charming songs (and for the illiterates amongst us: this means NO “SWING LOW”!!!!!!!)

Beer loods: [AMc1] Two beer loods will hold “the pot” to assure fresh drinks and ample refreshments at regular times.

Prick of the day: each day the tour committee has the difficult task to appoint a prick of the day. The prick of the day who will wear a suitable outfit for the whole day, will be selected amongst the most stupidest action of the day or night before……..feel free to opt for this position!

[AMc1]No idea what this word means. Suggest we change the word – toads, bitches?

The Third Day! (Walter)

2006-04-05T10:23:00.001+02:00

In “Welsh Trip 2006 19:11-16”, The All Time Most Nominated Best Rugby Player Of Rugbyclub ‘T Gooi had the people get ready because on the third day He was going to come down and manifest His presence.

And so He did. Around 11:00 a.m. on the third day, the third d*** of the day was appointed during the scenic bus tour from the 5-star Caerdydd players-hotel to the holy grounds of Llandaf North Rugby Union Football Club, a famous Welsh Rugby Club with great aspirations to beat the Dutch Premier Division Finalist ‘t Gooi.

During the first of two games, the Dutch pack dominated tremendously and, with the help of The All Time Most Nominated Best Rugby Player Of Rugbyclub ‘T Gooi, Llandaf North has been (b)eaten. With this game as example, the second game was a lot harder en just after a last look by the pussycat, the winning try was scored by the forwards of ‘t Gooi in the last seconds of the game.

During the third half of this third day, ‘t Gooi showed why they are famous, again. The clubhouse of Llandaf North scored an all-time drinking record, Spiderman never managed to stick on the ceiling that long, never climbed that much people a mountain on the floor and Sir Tom Jones even managed to trade his jacket for the best looking woman in the clubhouse: the 95 kilos weighing wife of the captain of Llandaf North.

The presences of Scarlet and Irish International Simon Easterby and of The All Time Most Nominated Best Rugby Player Of Rugbyclub ‘T Gooi at their premises will be remembered by Landaff North until the end of times.

After the luxurious 5-course diner and some after-diner ports and cigars in Llandaf North, ‘t Gooi managed to get to The Roundabout, a local get-together for Caerdyddian models and mannequins who fancy Dutch rugby players, again. Unbelievable how big Dutch rugby players seem completely gone when dancing in between one girl.

Unfortunately, just one or two beers later, again it was night, a very dark night…
