Transport was remarkably good too, with all trains appearing just as we needed them, and we even had seats on every journey!.
The atmosphere from the moment we left the train station was amazing... from being with thousands of people walking down closed roads,... to the 82,000 attendance singing the anthems.... to the roar when the 2 england tries were in the corner right in front of us.... and the sound of thousand of voices singing Sweet Chariot.
