Leon@71. Kar is ‘n ding met ‘n enjin. Jy hoeffie te trap nie. We’re goed as jy oor 40 jaar gaan en loop en fiery strap moeilik raak.
@ grootblousmile:
Ek. Het maar vir die home team gegaan. Weet watse een speel die swakste nie.
Force penalty, right in front
87 @ grootblousmile:
Nah, got caught up just quickly cleaning the leaves and grass out of my pool. Damn it is a daily job that, hectic actually, as my house is right on the golf course. Once they cut the green that I overlook each morning, the loose grass lands in my pool, ith leaves as well… 😡
Waratahs 23 / 19 Force
94 @ Puma:
ith = with
20 Minutes left in the match
Funny how the Aussie commentators think the sun shines out of Eberson backside since he’s been playing for he Fudge.
Come on Tahs a drop or a penalty will do now.
94 @ Puma:
You must get one of those surface gobblers…. with the little bag attached, it guides all surface stuff into the bag automatically
98 @ McLook:
I know, just feel good for Eberson getting plenty game time.
I need an unconverted Farce try plus a penalty for them….
Darrn can’t say the rugby is exciting.
@ McLook:
Hehe. Your old toppies are just jealous. I can youngsters how it is done. 🙂
100 @ grootblousmile:
I have that boet. It helps a lot, but still have to collect leaves and grass each morning and again in the afternoon when the wind picks up.
Waratahs relieving penalty on their own 22
103 @ McLook:
@ McLook:
Should have been : I can still show youngsters how it is done. Damn, mind is going.
Another Tahs penalty, just inside the Farce half.
Damn, I need a new keyboard, some of the keys on this one becomming sticky with so much use… luckily have some in stock
Come on Tahs! Just keep the difference at 7… 🙂

I once went by bicycle all the way from Pretoria to “Die Bron” near Groblersdal… we were 18 at the stage, 4 of us did it.
Don’t know why I did it, had a car by then….
Leon@108. It’s called Alzeimers light.
114 @ McLook:
Will do Mac, Thanks.
GBs@115. Reason is called testosteroon. It stopped (the mad behaviour) once you get married :).

Penalty Force, on the middle spot
