We arrived at the Seven's nice and early and ready for the first game. Of course it is a Rugby tournament but its more of a drinking tournament. The thing is you can't take booze in (of course) so you have to be sneaky and try and smuggle it in. Last year this was done with a bottle of booze down my jeans, this year it was plastic bags filled with vodka stuffed in my shirt. Got to say it works every time!
The only downside of this is you have to be pretty sneaky to drink it and still end up buying some mixers but it is definitely a lot cheaper then buying the drinks there. By the middle of the day most of our smuggled drinks were gone and we were up in our seats drinking, dancing and not watching the rugby at all. Its one of those things in London that everyone goes to so you can wander around and run into people you know or people you don't.
As always there is an after party somewhere and we headed out to Wimbledon to go crazy on the dancefloor. And we certainly weren't the only ones - we ran into a few more seventies people getting groovy.
The next day was a struggle to get there as we were all feeling a little worse for wear. But we powered through put on our (dirty stinky) dresses and went to the stadium. This time we did actually watch the rugby as we weren't so keen on the drinking and it was good to actually see what we went for in the first place.
The seven's weekend is always a good one! When you get that many people dressing up and drinking its like one big costume party. Lets see what next years seven's brings!
