N1 & N2 play for the local rugby team and if N3 rides horses. I don't mind giving up most of our weekend, that is what parenting is all about. I'm not so understanding when N1 & N2 want to come home late at night though!

It's a great way to spend a Saturday morning.<br /><br />Cheshire wife - Yes we are all enjoying it. The talent actually skipped a generation, Grandpa Troy was a good player as well as Great Grandpa Troy-in-law who apparently played in goal for Northampton Town. I, in contrast, was useless.<br /><br />CJ - yes there is a good bond between the boys on the team and it certainly good exercise.
