Congratulations to the rugby Springboks!

Rugby World Cup 2007 winners. Not the finest of rugby matches, but then finals never usually are. A tough, hard, tense game. England put up a really spirited performance considering their 36-0 defeat to the Springboks just a few weeks ago. Tremendous night for South African rugby with fantastic levels of celebration going on both before and after the game in South African cities. You couldn't buy a green & gold shirt or SA flag for love of money anywhere on Saturday!

Even today I think there will be plenty of workers sporting sore heads!
The parties were still going on right into Sunday.
Flags flying everywhere.

We have so little to get excited about in SA right now.
It therefore came as a real tonic to everyone!
Just what the doctor ordered!
