Hoert julle almal, hoe hang dit?
Dis weer sulke tyd, en ek is op my pos, so……
@ Pietman:Morning, With ANOTHER long weekend, who can complain here!!!! Hope you are well
Looks like it may be a bit wet at Eden Park
Hellllooooooooooooooo
Players out on the field.. I’m just in time!
Game ON!
Try Ioane… for the Reds
Instant action from the kick-off….
@ Just For Kicks:
Well thx bru, only need some of your nice rainy weather over here, already nearing the 50’s before noon!
@ grootblousmile:
Hello laatslaper.
Reds 5 / 0 Blues
Oh dear, missed that on!!!
8 @ Pietman:
Hello man… was gisteraand weer moer laat uit gewees… ons het gaan seekos smul!
Toe sit ons naderhand saam met die Cipriese Griekse Eienaar van die restaurant en kuier en kak praat tot die klein ure.
Flok ek het lekker geeet!
Bollocks, I went with the Blues – could be a loooooong weekend for me at this rate!!!
Damn, try by Luke Morahan for the Reds.
Phweeeew!
12 @ Just For Kicks:
Damn, I also went for the Blues and they look absolutely farking shitty!
How much kakker can they get?
@ grootblousmile:Hahaha – seafood in a Greek/Cypriot restaurant in the ‘Panne’, are you sure you know what you were actually eating? With that combination, it could have been the local cat for all you knew!!!!
My team already out of it, real shitty defence by them, bad start to my Superbru weekend this.
Reds 12 / 0 Blues
14@ grootblousmile:I heard that G Henry was doing great things with the Blues – thought that this was their best chance against a very poor Reds team
@ grootblousmile:
@8 Wat het jy geeet, n ‘gesoute pan barber’ en tjips, hehehehehe!
Ek toevallig ook gisteraand by n Turkse restaurant geeet, nie watwonders nie, ook n tipe barber of vleis met grate….
Very poor crowd at Eden Park – indicative of the rugby????
15 @ Just For Kicks:
Tjom, there are 2 of the absolute best Seafood restaurants in my general area, O’Patio’s Restaurant in Boksburg, belonging to a Porra (better Crayfish you won’t find in the world), and Perry the Cypriate Greek’s place here near Brakpan.
There’s no Kapenaar or Nataller who can make food like this… farking nowhere!
Weepu really beginning to take shape – as a Sumo Wrestler!
@ grootblousmile:Even better – any Porra selling Crays up their is pulling them straight from his long-drop!!!!!
@ Just For Kicks:…..and that lovely flavour isn’t coming from the cooking!!!!
Nonu may be doing well, Mr Commentator, but he’d do well to use his arms
@ Just For Kicks:
@ 15 Brakpan catfish, lol!!!!
Mine was probably a sand lizard from the edge of some oasis aka desert sole, eishhh….covered in garlic yogurt as topping/cover-up.
First decent move by the Blues from a great scrum, and it ends in a penalty against them.
@ grootblousmile:
Hier is ook O’Patio’s in Riyadh, sien ek! Seker n franchise?
19 @ Pietman:
Eers het Perry vir ons met sy komplimente ‘n Griekse Tafelslaai gestuur…
Ons het met ete 2 bottels Robertson Rosé gehad.
Vir starters het ek ‘n Creamy Garlic & Cheese Prwns Starter ge-eet…. gemaak met die selfde sous soos hulle gewoonlik die creamy garlic snails starters maak, net baie lekkerder.
Vir Hoofgereg het ek ‘n dosyn Prawns geeet met rys…. met ‘n chilli, knoffel en ‘n suurlemoenbotter sousie….. flok ek amper my vingers ook opgevreet.
Toe het ons so paar Don Pedro’s gedoen, paar springbokkies….
Komaan Blues! Doen dit vir Suid-Afrika….en Pietman natuurlik.
