Good song from Spitting Image that. I miss that programme. Why hasn't it been on the telly for so long?

I'm not one to stereotype nations based on a few individuals, but I'm looking forward to the day I meet a South African I can have a laugh with. They've all been far too serious for my liking.

And my cousin was married to one, who turned out to be a Grade 1 Arsehole. I could have told her that before they married, but love is blind and all that.

I knew a Safrican guy in Paris who was the most dangerous person I've ever met.
Great lad. :)

Totally agree - really sad for a players career to be ended under such circumstances. He's been a great player for SA over the years....

Am gutted for Boucher and hope he makes a full recovery as eyesight isn't something you want to mess about with.

On a different note, very nice of SkyBet to offer 5/6 for us to beat the Aussies last night. Not entirely sure why they thought we might struggle given the gulf between the two sctatchinghead

It's funny you should say that. I met a Yarpie in Amsterdam working on a club door, place we went most nights and he said he couldn't go back to the UK as there'd been an unfortunate death...... :o
