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.

Countdown has started

I am looking forward to a good game.

"Blokkies hak daai bal!"

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...

My cousin is in Perth WA at the moment, I hope he didn't get up at 2am to watch that!

Suffice it to say I was delighted with South African victory.

A very enjoyable afternoon/evening

Here’s a completely unbiased match report from Springbok.com

I’m stealing that, actually I’m getting quite good at the ZA anthem, still struggling with the first verse but working at it
