ALL the teams are up, for this weekend!
The 2 Live Game Articles for tomorrow morning (Friday’s) Super Rugby matches have been scheduled, see you in the morning, first game up at 09:35 SA Time
Hello All.
Seems ages since I had any time to blog decently.
So much to say and comment on, and so little time.
The wife is in the Karroo with rifle in hand ready to aim at Bambie and dry his tender flesh out in the warm African air, so my life seems to be taken up with feeding dogs and cats, washing and (sometimes) ironing, and working for ungrateful clients who are then very tardy in their payment habits.
Oh for the leisurely life of software writer or the tranquility of a wine farm in the fairest Cape like some of the authors here on RT!
Ah well, I guess I’ll just have to accept the slurry of gold recovery, and the blood and guts of the meat industry. More work is better than no work I guess.
Hope I get a chance to blog with you all a bit over the weekend, and hopefully get to publish an article I’ve been working on for a few weeks.
Until the weekend, Cheers all.
Oh vlok, Superbru predictions needed. Leaderless Lions by a handful?
7@ Scrumdown:
Hello Scrumdown, long time no see, seems like you’ve got your hands full that side, oh dear the life of the downtrodden worker 🙂 If you’ve been workin on that article for a few weeks then it must be a good one, hope to see it soon, enjoy the rugby.
