1997/98 Harwell 50th Anniversary
Harwell's 50th Anniversary celebrations of an old boys match against a Harwell XV, followed by formal dinner at AERE Harwell Restaurant on Saturday 6th September will, for all concerned, be better remembered as the day of the funeral of Princess Di.
The teams observed a minute's silence before a thrilling, action packed match, which probably resulted in a win for one or other of the sides and a promise by many present to not really come out of retirement.
John Inverdale was a rather subdued guest speaker at the dinner.
