@ grootblousmile:
Everything else I do is broadband fast, but I am waiting 10 to 20 seconds for RT to assimilate the info, whatever it is, comments, going home, switching stories etc.
So there is nothing wrong with my computer or my link.
Try by Hans Grobler for SWD
SWD 15 / 13 as Ambrose Barends misses the conversion
10@ 4man:
Clean your Internet Cache…. there is NOTHING wrong with the site, I repeat NOTHING WRONG!
Why is it that only you and Puma always battle…. must be an “Age” Thing….
@ grootblousmile:13 – gbs, hahahahaha. No age thing boeta, think this site is slow many times. For now it is working okay…hehehe.
14@ Puma:
OK, so you say the site is not slow at the moment, but for 4man it is…. so the logical deduction is that the site is NOT SLOW (can’t be fast for one and slow for another….. unless the problem lies with the computer which appears to be slow).
Simple really….
Howzit all. Re your comment yesterday GBS sorry didn’t get back on to reply, yip we are looking forward to the Autumn Internationals, unfortunately the trip to watch the Boks in Ireland won’t be happening, tickets such a rip off plus other stuff on the go here. But we are going to be at Murrayfield so looking forward to that!
Okay off to the clubhouse for sundowners back tomorrow. Have not slept a wink after that long flight either. Maybe a few glasses of red will help..hehehe.
See you all tomorrow.
SHARKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
17@ Puma:
Cheers Puma
Cheers Puma been a while mate, enjoy your eve there, all the best for the rugby tomorrow.
16@ Bullscot:
No problem Bully….
TMO
Another try SWD??
Jacques Engelbrecht.
@ grootblousmile:15 – Sometimes takes a long time to refresh. For now it is fine but I do battle with it some of the time. Also while over in Oz I could not log on here for most of my time over there but could log onto keo. So not sure what is wrong. Not my lap top..hehehehe.
Cheers off now for sundowners.
Awarded!
@ Bullscot:19 – Bullscot. Thanks buddy.
Catch up tomorrow.
SWD 20 / 13
Lemoenetyd
@ Puma:
Yeah also have some hassles at times going through IE but now on Firefox seems better.
So 3 tries already for SWD not far from the bonus point, will they stop Leopards from getting 4 tries and take it down to points difference, interesting balance at the moment.
28@ Bullscot:
8 Points deficit still for SWD…. plus they need a try and prevent the Leopards from getting 3 more tries…. still very possible…
