| I was at a dinner last night run by my rugby club and heard Bentley speak, he's very amusing, but has an incredibly thick northern accent.
He's a bit of a legend too, he was out the previous night in Fenwicks and Neptunes till 7am, as some of the boys who play rugby saw him in there!

The SA 7s team has been doing very well in other tournaments this season. They're 2nd in the league but way behind NZ. SA worth an outside punt to win the tournament.......if you can find a bookie to take your cash!!!!  |
England usually go okay at the 7's. Won it 4 out of 6 times since 2001. |

You're right. Bentley told the audience that he was quite nervous when he came to this luncheon with the cards putting "Bentley the moderator" - he was at Neptunes till 7am this morning. And yes, he has a thick Yorkshire accent.

| there are quite a few tickets available for tomorrow night. A lot of people don't bother with Friday night.
