I am off for pool duty…. have to figure out how to vacuum the pool, after all the South Eatern winds blowing from the coast and since hubbie is has left, I didn’t need to do it myself. But alas, the time has come for pool cleaning! We have an awesome day in the Cape, first surfing competition on the beach, Beach road blocked with all the traffic.
Will catch up later guys!
Pity old Griqua won’t be able to se his beloved ‘peacock blues’ play today, nice jumper that the Griqua blue-greenish one.
I wonder if oom Bossie (?) is still there, next to the linesman?
@ Pietman:

Net gou iets gaan gryp om te eet, mens kan nie van biltong en cabannossi en sweets alleen lewe nie, nou terug.
Hey Puma, keep in touch and let me know your date of arrival in Brisbane. I might be up there myself at around about the same time. We could have a couple of coldies together……….
@ bos_otter:
hahaha. Where you work Bos that you work late on a Saturday?
@ Old Griquas 14 in Sydney:17 – OldG, Sure will do mate.
I’m halfway through “Losing My Virginity”, the autobiography of Sir Richard Branson, what a facinating read! Must say, there is nothing better than a good book, except for rugby off course.
So, give me some score predictions here…
20@ Snoek:
I can think of better things…. hehehe
Puma, sharks having a good gap opened up on top of the CC log. We are in a bit of a slump, but still getting the points.
35 – 25 vir die leeus.
Game on!
Jantjes, ‘n toekomstige bok.
Penalty Lions, easy one
Lions 3 / 0
Jantjies is a good player. What a talent he is. Great kicker too.
@ Snoek:23 – Snoek, Howzit.
Yip, as long as we keep winning. I don’t care how just as long as we win and with the bonus that is fine with me.
