For those of us still learning Afrikaans would you guys mind posting the english translation as well. I know very little Afrikaans but I am learning. When you provide both languages...then it is great for me..Of course if it is just too much work I understand :)

10 ears since SA won the WORLD CUP today - where were you??
The truth is I lost interest in rugby after Francois Pienaar left. It's only after Jake White became the coach that I became a Springbok fan again.:)

I met my wife outside Nelspruit watching the game.
We've been married for 9 years now - and got saved about 7 years ago:amen: :bow:

Hier kom die bokke!

It must be so cool having a fellow rugby fan as a spouse.:):cool:

Its the best having a wife who also loves rugger. And now my 2 sons do too.!!!

I hope Jake stays.

After Francois - I really enjoyed Gary Teichmann as captain too. I thought the bokke became pretty boys and models more than players when Skinstad was captain.

I'm glad they back on track now.

Cheers

I wanna know, is it wrong to play lotto as a Christian? And if so, why?

Good to see you here Stormie.

Yep - Tri Nations should be a goodie. Bokke still need to peak which is always a good thing. Just wish politics could be out the way of SA sport in general.:sigh:
Ye one of those things hey .. sport and politics should be worlds apart :)

Yep let the bokke creep up on the peaking .... when is the world cup on? :D

Still remember watching when they won again the Kiwi's and Pienaar as kapt.
Hope they do it again :)

World Cup is in 2 years - 2007.

I must organize to be in SA for it :) I am so homesick for my home away from home. No one understands half the things I say and I have to realize they don't know what English mixed with Afrikaans is. LOL.

Lekker - invite them to kuier at a braai with you okes and have some boerewors.

That will really get them confused.

I don't know about anyone else, but our [Baptist] church discussed the issue at length several months after the Lotto was started. We came to the conclusion that the Lotto is gambling, and that gambling was wrong, the logical conclusion being that playing the Lotto was a no-no. IIRC it had to do with not placing our trust in God to provide financially.

Anyhow, how many years down the line, and I don't regret stopping when I did. I have a Peace in my heart about it, and that's good enough for me.
