It is just a few days till Christmas, or as the little ones would say, just 6 sleeps. I decided to once again do a Christmas Greetings video for all you muppits, moepels and mopkoppe, but also to keep it till a bit later to force you to come back and back to Rugby-Talk till I hit you with the clanger!

So, this is not your merry, merry, happy, happy article, but a precurser to the clanger.

The question is, what are you all up to for the holidays, what are your plans? Who are you happy about seeing over the festive season and who are you dreading to invite or see? Where are you going and when are you coming back from holiday?

Who’s working right through? Personally I’m closing the office to the public from the afternoon of Friday 23 December 2011 till the morning of 3 January 2012.

Whilst every bloody Vaalie and Soppiekoppie are at the coast or hoarding the better holiday spots, I will stay at home! I do not want to see the same idiots I see on a daily basis, just at a different venue, thank you very much! I will go away, like I usually do, once they are all back where they belong!

So, tell me, who’s promised to fix this and that at home, to do those things which never gets done in a busy year’s schedule?

Well, I have plans of my own…

I have plenty to do…

I’m going to re-pack my garages, fix the jaccuzzi, kill the freegin ant plague in and around our house and yard, fix the electrical fault under a wooden floor, varnish the wooden deck and install one extra deck roof pole, pressure clean the driveway…. and scour a number of marks on the fibre glass of the pool.

I will build up so many brownie points that I will be a happy camper, full time, for the next year!

Of course, I believe in working smarter and not harder, so here’s how I plan to do it…

  • Firstly, I will recruit two upstanding willing souls, who can sand, paint, carry heavy stuff… for a few days.
  • Secondly, I will delegate duties to them…. and set them to work properly.
  • Thirdly I will pour me a loooong “meisiebier” or “sletsap” as I call them, then sit in the pool with a couple of household potscourers and scour the marks on the fibre glass.
  • Fourthly, upon realising that my looong drink is finished, from time to time, I will get out of the pool, bark some more orders, point some fingers, and then pour myself another looong “sletsap”.
  • Fifthly, I will repeat steps tree and four till I’m satisfied that I have done EVERYTHING on my list of chores….
  • Sixthly, I will braai at least once a day… or have BonzaiGBS do it for me.

It’s hark work, I know, yeah it’s a tough life… and I know you guys don’t envy the arduous process that I’ll be going through, and the physical strain it’ll take on my body, but hey, someone’s GOT TO do it!

Oh, and then I’ll work on a bit of a revamp to the look and feel of Rugby-talk, one that I have been threatening to do for a while now…

…. and of course there is still the cricket to look forward to, a bit of other sport… Christmas and New Year… food, food, food, party, party, party…

Come onnnnnnnnn, tell me about your plans!
