Lekker man… busy but lekker.

Busy buying a few extra properties here in the Panne…

Bought a nice one well below Municipal valuation on auction on Tuesday and put in an offer on another one (2 houses on 1 property) on Friday… a Standard Bank repossession… will also get it well below Municipal valuation.

@ Tassies:
haha Tassies no only because of Bru pick and it will also be nice to face Wales next week with their confidence lower.

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:11 pm

this is incredible. 17 phases to open the game, followed by a matching 17 by the Welsh. Must be a record there somewhere.
19

Bullscot on 7 February 2016 at 5:13 pm

CJ nicely involved in the game so far
20

Bullscot on 7 February 2016 at 5:14 pm

Camera focussing on CJ, looks like he is feeling the effect of the pace of the game
21

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:15 pm

@ grootblousmile: and just when I thought you guys spent most of you time panning for gold there on the East Rand.
22

grootblousmile on 7 February 2016 at 5:15 pm

Ireland 6 / 0 Wales
23

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:16 pm

this is phenomenal rugby. Ball getting lots of air.
24

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:19 pm

we seem to give some of best talent to the world. This time CJ Stander. Sticks in the throat.
25

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:20 pm

@ Bullscot: BS your tartan skirts played well yesterday. Just thought the Poms defence was up to the task, more so than your boys afraid.
26

grootblousmile on 7 February 2016 at 5:21 pm

Wales penalty to goal missed… bad miss!
27

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:22 pm

note how still and respectful the crowd is when the opposition is kicking for goal. So old school and I miss this part of the game.
28

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:23 pm

@ grootblousmile: Welsh 10 not looking well. He’d nail that with his eyes closed normally.
29

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:27 pm

this is a very accomplished performance so far by the Micks.
30

Tassies on 7 February 2016 at 5:28 pm

CJ thinks he’s a centre judging by the way he’s playing. Will the man last the pace?
