A night to savour

Jim Hopkins, of the New Zealand Herald, reflects on his experience at the World Cup final.

"One minute, I was sitting there, trying to think of clever things to write, the next I was being asked a completely unexpected question. "Would you like to go to the game?" What? "Would you like to go to the game. I've got some tickets. Would you like one?" Yes! Yes, yes, yes, yes, yes!!!!

Sir, you are a gentleman (and he is, in every sense). That's unbelievably generous. Of course I'd love to go to the game. You'd have to be dead not to. And, even then, you'd get yourself dug up if it meant you could be there."
