Re: England 7s Fixtures Dubai 2008
Good day to you all

I thought I would let you know that tickets are already very hard to come by and seemed to sell out very quickly indeed. Unless you have one or have made alternative arrangements then you may be disappointed.

The wife and kids were also off early on Friday for the breast cancer walk and having just returned from a trip took the opportunity to take my car for a spin early in the morning to find the new club site – crikey it is a long way from anywhere, so if you’re coming over for the Dubai 7’s please make sure your transport there and back is arranged.

See you in Dubai

Re: England 7s Fixtures Dubai 2008
Hi Steve: Thank you for this information and updated. I am amazed with this new stadium that the tickets are nearly gone already!!

Steve hope you don't mind me asking but if you get the chance and are able to, would you be kind enough to send a couple of photos through of the new stadium and the event if you are going?

Thanking you for all of this Kathsmiling smiley
