    I heard the score on the radio @wild edges  :(
    It sounded painfully close too...
    16-16 and then a penalty to SA in the final minutes ... dread to think how the Welsh rellies are taking it ... 🙄 
    It was a pretty dire match to watch in comparison to so many others where there has been open, flowing rugby.  At times it seemed to be a competition to see who could kick the ball highest/furthest or a combination of both.  I thought rugby was about ball handling.  (No smutty comments please) :-)

    I thought that that was how the game originated @KT53😊

    No B3.  Someone picked it up and ran with it.

    Have to say I have managed to avoid most of the rugby but what I have seen shows the SA team to be physical and brutal and not entertaining.  I expect rugby to flow.

    It was the most disappointing result since my wife's last pregnancy test :|

    How can you lie there and think of England
    When you don't even know who's in the team

    I guess we'll have to wait a few more months to test that.

    I ordered a new freezer last Saturday with 'fast and free next day delivery'. It turned out though that by 'next day' they meant 'next week... sometime... maybe'. I just had a text to say it will be here between 7am and 11am tomorrow morning, a full 9 days after ordering it. I'm not sure how long they're prepared to wait if they turn up at 7am on a Monday morning but there doesn't seem to be any way I can contact them to say to come after I've had a chance to get the kids up and fed and drink at least 2 two coffees.

    I hope it wasn't from Curry's @wild edges. They have a great reputation in that uselessness deptartment.  :#

    No it was from PC World :# I could rant for pages about how hard it is to buy a decent freezer these days though. Just brewing the second coffee though and no delivery yet.
