It is Sunday 29 January 2012 and it has just hit me that this was the last weekend of the year (till deep into December) where we would not have either quality Southern Hemisphere rugby or good International rugby to look forward to.
Get your rugby gear ready, washed & pressed, give the women folks a last good squeeze & tickle and watch ALL the crappy soapies, reality dancing and singing TV shows & chick flieks you possibly can today. Build up the last few remaining brownie points, which you should have started building up from about 10 December 2011.
Why do you ask, what’s happening?
Well, for starters the first live Varsity Cup rugby is on TV tomorrow (Monday) late agternoon and into the evening, the first match starting at 17:00 between Central University of Technology (CUT) vs Wits, followed by the match between University of Fort Hare (UFH) vs University of the Western Cape (UWC) at 19:00, both broadcast on SuperSport 1.
Apart from that, the 2012 SIX Nations internationals kicks off this coming weekend!
This means, apart from being glued to the TV for live rugby, that the TV Rugby magazine programs like Boots & All and Super Rugby are back in their regular TV spots,with Boots & All on a Thursday night and Super Rugby on a Monday night…. as well of course Reunion, the New Zealand & Australian discussion program.
Although we’ve had a couple of Super Rugby warm-up matches already, warm-ups start in earnest this coming weekend.
Handbriekie, you know I love you… but I’m a rugby man, a rugby mad supporter, forgive me.. and please, please bear with me and my rugby for the year!
Time to get your Varsity Cup SuperBru picks in, your SIX Nations picks sorted to be done by Friday evening…
SuperBul, it is your birthday today, I believe.
Happy Happy birthday, may your year be prosperous, may your ventures be successful, may your fruit and veggies sell and your nursery go from strenght to strenght!
… may you also find enough rugby time in this busy year you are facing…
Hope the family spoil you rotten today!
Gooooooooooooi Mieliesssssssssss!
Bring on next w/end!!!
Oh, just seen that, happy birthday Superbul – may all this years dreams come true – except the one where Stormers beat the Bulls in the final!
Yes, Happy Birthday Supa, can only wish you a wonderful day and year. Hope that the Bulls can bring you pleasure this year.

Thanks GBS, your wishes are all well meant , thanks. My dear wife organised the stall and took me away for the weekend to The ATKV resort Eiland. What a great relaxing weekend. I have decided there an then this MUST happen more regularly. With all my hard graft and stress i have lost 25kg and boy was i the sexiest old man there…… hahaha. The problem with me is the bloody six pack. The only one i have is the one i buy at the botle store.
Thanks to all the other bloggers for the well wishes.
JFK your worries about the Bulls vs Stormers must be less after SARU undermined the BBC. But wait HM will silently work for us…..
Happy Birthday superBul!
