Hi Pete and all,
On Saturday the Springboks hammered the Wallabies but then the previous Saturday it was the other way around. The third round this coming Saturday should be the telling one. Makes sport fun. Nothing guaranteed. Schumacher and team supreme for a long time, now Renault's turn!
Australia and South Africa have been cricket and rugby 'enemies' for many years and generally evenly matched. Americans must think we are nuts to play those funny sports but then if you want to upset an American tell him that his favourite sports, baseball and basket ball are derived from English school girls games, netball and rounders! He, he, he, I had better switch off before I get shot, which is one thing Americans do well!
Talking of sport, Lance Armstrong is surely unique among men, a great role model for millions and a brilliant ambassador for his country. He sure would make a popular politician.
Best regards,
