Myself and OHL are meeting at The Cricketers pub in Richmond on Friday afternoon and then descending on Twickenham rugby ground with loads of ex-pat Saffers and Sheep shaggers( sorry John) for the Springboks v The All Blacks World Cup warmup match.
When all else fails, read the instructions.

Will be following commentary as best as I can.
My cousin and I will be supporting different teams.
I have suggested he may wish to look away... ;)))
