Have’nt started with the Undertaker’s business yet…. still about a month from starting
GBS should bring one those coffins from his parlour, fix it on the roof as we pass through Sir Lowry’s, that would send those superstitious baboons back up the mountain….@ Just For Kicks:
Jantjies really seems to have gone backwards this season, it just seems a real lack of confidence. Non of those magic moves anymore
Lions just bundle the Blues out…
Lemoenetyd
71@ grootblousmile:Aaaaaah, a hero of the future. You shall be known as Super Coffin Boy.
72@ Pietman:Hahahaha, but he must be driving an old peugeot 404 station wagon from the ’70’s to make it really effective!!!!! Oh yes, and that funny bluey/grey colour to boot!
73 @ Pietman:
Will be flying down, and rent a scrapper from Avis or something… you think they will mind if I strap a coffin an a Taz’s roof?
Hehehe
76 @ Just For Kicks:
GrootBlouCoffin

@ Just For Kicks:
I read on News24 the baboons in the Cape nowadays have taken to drinking wine in the vineyards on the slopes of Table mountain, and then start their rampage, attacking cars and making a general nuisance of themselves…..some might even find their way to parliament soon I reckon, not that anyone will notice the different level of debate in those chambers.
@ Just For Kicks:
Yes, like old Don Leonard the Undertaker from Fordsburg!
79@ Pietman:At least there’d be less corruption!!!!
80 @ Pietman:
Hey, help me think of a very good name for a Funeral Business…. I’m serious.
Talk to me first, before you come down…we have many places to go!
Kickers cellar is en route, and so on…we have to plan for unforseen events!
2 Nd Half ON!
