Tim is very excited!
He's going to have dinner on Wednesday night with Ian McGeechan!
For the benefit of all readers other than Tim's dad, Geech is a true legend of Scottish rugby and the British & Irish Lions. He was capped 32 times by Scotland and toured with the Lions as a player in 1974 and 1977. He was head coach for the Lions in 1989, 1993, the hugely successful 1997 tour to South Africa, and most recently the 2009 tour (again South Africa).
It's a charity dinner in aid of Wooden Spoon, and Toby's bank has taken two tables, with Tim firmly in the "potential client"/"hanger-on" category of guests. With any luck, as well as a free copy of Geech's new book "Pride Restored", Tim will be able to seek an audience with the big man and persuade him to join Quins as head coach before their season goes from bad to worse.
