Lions & Scotland Legend David Sole at the Club

 

There was a large turnout at the Big Field last week for the visit of former Scottish captain and British Lion David Sole. Sole led a popular whisky tasting for The Balvenie where he is a brand ambassador before submitting to a Q&A session at the hands of former Welsh schoolboy international Jim Evans, who out of respect for the visiting dignitary wore a kilt for the evening. Evans commented," It was one fabulous evening. The Balvenie Tasting was interesting as well as refreshing and it got the audience in the right mood for the interview. David entered into the spirit of the evening and was a great sport. He even recreated the famous slow walk on to the pitch before the Grand Slam victory over England at Murrayfield in 1990" Evans added" He has texted us since to say that seeing an entire English Rugby Club singing Flower of Scotland is definitely one of the highlights of his career."
