Well Blackie (or son) I think this website is super that both of you have started. I know this is rather late but I would like to say what an absolutely fantastic week in Edinburgh for the Touch Rugby World Cup 2011. As a mom what an honour and privilege to have this opportunity to support not only you but all of your team members and the whole South African entourage. I know I can speak for all the family members who joined us in Edinburgh from the North of England to support and enjoy the atmopsphere, your dad, your boet from Capetown and his friend Paul who travelled from London. It was awesome to see all of the sixteen countries playing their hearts out to achieve one goal to win the cup!!! The atmosphere was amazing from morning until night, seeing all the preparations going on, music, the smell of roast hog breadrolls, and special Scottish oats for the chilly mornings. With it being a non- contact sport at the end of each game it was very special when both teams joined in harmony for a group photograph, memories for the album. The hype was amazing and I was glad to wear the South African flag around my shoulders for most of the games!!! Well done to your team for achieving the bronze medal, an emotional loss for your oponents however your team gave a fine warcry as a tribute to them. Roll on Australia 2015, hard training ahead for all you guys.
Love Mummzie
