93 @ grootblousmile:
I know… 😛 Will leave that to you okes though.
Just reading on the SharksRugby site, see that the players have really enjoyed having Carlos there and he will be staying a little longer. Sounds good to me. See he is not with us for the whole season, but will come and help out through out the S15 tournement from time to time, when we need him. Great news that. Also excellent to see the Bok Defence coach helping out as well. All the rugby brains we can get helping out the better for my Sharks. Good work from Plum in getting them there.
Here is a small part of the article I copied from SR site.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
“The players have really enjoyed having Carlos here,” Plumtree admits. “I’d like him here a little longer – he’s not here for the whole tournament –he has family back in Joburg. But he will help us through the course of the season, he’ll see how we go and he’ll come down periodically. He will be good for not only our flyhalves but also our backs, he’ll also be working on our kicking game. But really, he’s just touched the surface of what I want from him.”
Springbok defence coach John McFarland has also spent a few sessions with The Sharks and by all accounts, his contribution has been invaluable. “He has had a lot of experience coaching at a top level for a long time, he’s a specialist in defence and we wanted to pick his brains, to make use of his knowledge this week. It’s a good change for the boys with some fresh ideas.” Utilising external personnel has always been embraced by The Sharks coaching staff, mindful of the fact that there is a lot of intellectual capacity in South Africa. It also works in the Springboks favour.
“It’s important that we adopt the philosophy of sharing information from the Springbok management to us which will also give John a better idea of our players by working with us. We’re able to open up the working relationship with the Springbok coaches, starting with him.”
Yes.. 🙂 Bafana just equalised. Go Bafana hang in there, think we just need a draw to go through.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_English-based_pidgins
Nigerian Pidgin is an English-based pidgin and a creole language spoken as a lingua franca across Nigeria. The language is commonly referred to as “Pidgin” or “Brokin”. It is often not considered a creole language since most speakers are not native speakers, although many children do learn it early. Nonetheless it can be spoken as a pidgin, a creole, or a decreolised acrolect by different speakers, who may switch between these forms depending on the social setting.[1] Ihemere (2006) reports that Nigerian Pidgin is the native language of approximately 3 to 5 million people and is a second language for at least another 75 million. Variations of Pidgin are also spoken across West Africa, in countries such as Equatorial Guinea and Cameroon. Pidgin English, despite its common use throughout the country, has no official status.
Each of the 250 or more ethnic groups in Nigeria can converse in this language, though they usually have their own additional words. For example, the Yorùbás use the words Şe and Abi when speaking Pidgin. These are often used at the start or end of an intonated sentence or question. For example, “You are coming, right?” becomes Şe you dey come? or You dey come abi? Another example, the Igbos added the word Nna also used at the beginning of some sentences to show camaraderie. For example, man! that test was hard becomes Nna, that test hard no be small.

Super,
I just clicked on your name to look at the wild life photos. Not sure if some are new or not as have not looked at them for a very, very long time. Really like those ‘white lions’ well think they are. Do you still spend time in the bush? Would love to do a bush holiday again. Have not done that for years now.
Anyhow I am out of here. Good to catch up with you again Super. You are scarce here these days.
112 @ superBul:
Pidgin English is extremely popular in most parts of Africa, particularly West Africa, and has been accepted as the de-facto language of blue collar trade and merchants. Pidgin remains the “great” equalizer – a way of communicating on a base level that cuts through bullshit.
For citizens without easy access to higher education and white collar jobs, picking up a few words of English and mixing it with elements of their native tongues has been the default way of communicating across tribal cultures.
Variations of Pidgin English can be found all over the world, from the Caribbean to China, and each comes with its own library of everyday words.
As you travel across West Africa, the style of Pidgin spoken becomes more familiar, but still differs based on local language elements infused into it.
Even if you don’t find yourself traveling to Nigeria in the distant future, try one of these phrases on one of your Nigerian friends, and fully bask in their glowing response.
