A lesson in geography

Last week we reported that the new women's league structure had placed our nearest adult team - Hitchin - in a division largely featuring teams from Sussex and Kent. Some of us suspected that the club had been lumped into that division because it was assumed that - as the M25 goes through Hertfordshire - Hitchin must be somewhere in north London.

So it is good to hear that, having been in receipt of complaints from Hitchin (and maybe an atlas), RFUW now realise that the Hertfordshire is not a London borough and moreover that the north of the county is actually in East Anglia. As a result we read that Hitchin have been moved to a more sensible division (details have yet to be announced).
