I went to my local Hardware shop just now to buy 6 x 70mm Self-tapping wood screws…
Biggggggggggg mistake, never send me to the hardware shop, I always end up buying FARRRRRRRRRRRR more than what I wanted to get in the first place…. hehehe
7@ grootblousmile:
When you’re next there see if you can get me a new golf swing at a decent price!
Catrakilis misses a penalty attempt.
This boykie needs to be purchased soon by one of the Big Unions… he’s got huge talent

😯 flok, dink jy dissie moeite werd om ñ 2de helfte te speel?
dis n treurmare die week weer cheetahs proteas shimlas nee hel dis te erg,ek vat nou n twee weke break van sport kyk dalk lyk dit dan beter
@ grootblousmile:
ek sal redelik peeed off wees as daar nog nie n kontrak aangebied is vir die Ikeys no 10 nie. Daai ou is net die back up wat ons nodig het vir MS
18@ Ashley:
Daai klomp Hanskakies van UCT moes verlede week verloor het teen Tuks… nou speel hulle asof iemand ‘n turbo in hulle holle geplant het…
19@ smallies72:
Eishhhhhhhhhh, dis lelik hierdie week vir jou spanne!
Lemoenetyd
die Kaapse spanne speel deesdae goeie rugby, regte Bulle rugby. Dodelike skopper en al. Hierdie jaar begin hulle boonop soos die Bulle laasjaar, met 5 wenne in n ry, nou die groot vraag kan hulle klaarmaak soos die Bulle?
@nd Half on
It is going to be exceedingly difficult for the Shimlas to win this game.
@ grootblousmile:
Dis seer broer die seer…
@ Loosehead:
Moet nou nie so negatief wees nie maat ons gaan met n hash terugkom
UCT 50 / 3
if i were a man given to using profanities i might say that Shimlas were getting a good assfcuk!
Pity Ikeys are gonna get one from UJ next week.
