Rugby Fever - Go Bokke
Rugby World Cup fever is running rampant throughout the land . Tomorrow night South Africa will come to a standstill, when the Lions and the Springboks vie for the world cup. With two highly motivated and determined teams it promises to be an exciting match.
After the last encounter South Africa will want to make sure it stays on top and England of course, will not want a repeat of a 36/0 hiding.
I wanted to post a picture of a lion for the English team, but the closest I could come to one in my archives was a ginger cat................. at first I thought maybe not, as it might upset the English fans..... but then I thought why not, it is appropriate after their last performance....... on the other hand what if they stage a come back, where does that leave me - humiliated.............what the heck, here goes..... I can take it

Pussy cat, pussy cat I love you.........
...........................GO BOKKE!
What is it about 30 men chasing a little oval shaped ball around a field that gets nations so excited?

Go Bokke
For the unenlightened South Africa and England have made it to the finals of the Rugby World Cup and we can expect a great battle on Saturday, 20 October 2007.
National pride is again at stake and after the 30-0 defeat at the last encounter, England will be sure to fight back with great vigour. As one commentator said, the English only stop fighting when they are dead - the Lions are alive and well and set to redeem themselves.
But the Bokke are firing on all cylinders and more than willing and able to show the Lions what they are made of.........again.

Time to nail my colours to the mast.................Go Bokke!
