    Love this, memories of that World Cup victory and my lovely Dad who died in July. We played this at his funeral. He loved rugby all his life and the only time I ever saw him cry with happiness was when England won that match. Many happy times with him in that crowd at Twickenham, And thanks Jonny, will be forever grateful

I could not breathe so much, my heart was beating so loudly and come this freedom from the majestic drop of Sir Johnny Wilkinson in the extra times. 🎼 swing slow, sweet chariot 🎼. long life to the 15 of the rose

      I never forget it, I was a second chef in a Australian themed pub (up and down under) in Nottingham. There was 4-6 Aussie fans in (friends of the owner) and about 500 England fans all of them happy, singing and not one fight. I was doing breakfasts with the kitchen porter whilst the head chef helped downstairs on the bar.
      The food tickets dried up at full time so me and the KP watched the over time from the condiment station next to the kitchen, I'm surprised the floor didn't fall through when Johnny scored the winner ROFL.
      The owner and assistant manager went and got lots of buns after we cleaned up, and all the rest of the breakfast fry up items got served to the staff for free, he never let us eat any of the food without paying.

    I'm here to say in 2023 almost summer time that this was a absolute wicked version of swing low, only Ali and the band sound like this they are fucking awesome veteran homegrown music makers and I've been chilling to these all my life. From way back when I was literally a small child. You've gotta be some serious anal retentive not to at least enjoy some of their music. I remember tromping over to my school pals shed he'd decked out with electric, lights, grill, bed, speakers, curtains, carpet, many a bong and pipe, hot knives ready to heat, lots of girls coming etc and we'd slap on some Baggariddim and just get high and have a good laugh while chilling to good music......and I'm still appreciating them today. A proper success story they came from nothing.
