Followed Cas home and away without missing a game for 11 years, including Paris twice. Struggled to cope going to both the football and rugby, so gave the rugby up, like you I’ll be hoping Cas win.

I too was hoping for a Cas win today, although for obvious reasons it would probably more accurate to say that I was hoping for a St Helens defeat.

Unfortunately it wasn't meant to be.

Obviously disappointed, but the best team won in the end, irrespective of the controversy surrounding one of the Saints tries.

Would agree best team won but a better start to the 2nd half and things would have been different I feel.

Hope you had a great day BB. Our grandson never had a graduation ceremony due to Covid. Got his degree through the post, no photo's. He doesn't seem bothered, we are.

Had a lovely day, thank you Sir John.

I think I’ve mentioned before he got a first in his degree, and in the programme, which was left on our seats, he’s got a little asterisk next to his name to reflect this, one of only 3 students on the whole course.

We too were restricted, in that he could only have two guests, but the university put it on line live and by all accounts it was an excellent stream.

Well done BB junior, obviously takes after his mother
