    We don't do Hakas that's those stupid Kiwis (stupid because we gave them the chance to be Aussies but they said no). Interesting aside up till the 60s the Aussue Rugby League team did do an Aboriginal War cry before test matches.

    There are two ways to be fooled, one is to believe what isn't true, the other is to refuse to believe that which is true.

          G'day Jeff,

          Rush has done some brilliant work, what's more he knows how to spell his first name properly.

              I'd never say stupid to a Kiwi. Not up close, at least.

                      Not sure if you are keeping up Steady but at 1/4 time Lions were in front but 10 into 2nd it's 20-15 the Swans.

                        Sorry to hear you're out of action Steady, take it easy old chap.

                        You'll be glad to hear that plans for the tunnel into Switzerland are going well, we should be there by 08:00 next Thursday.
                        If you haven't read the other thread, Gut has been nominated to DNA test Queen Vic's bloomers. Let's just hope he doesn't ask any dodgy scientists for help.

                        Will send some rations to help keep your strength up, what would you like?
                        Here at HQ we have plenty of Marmite, Beef Dripping and Haggis...

                                Yes, GUT, you have a point. Some time you'll have to explain it to the 18th Century colonial general, Lord Amherst ("twas a soldier of the king").

                                Actually it does bother me, and I have considered having it legally changed to "Geoffrey". But in the Jewish tradition, you are given names based on deceased relatives. My father's father Jack/Jake/Yaacob is the basis for my first name Jeffrey (note the same first letter)/Yaacob. Curiously I could not get the anglicanization of Jacob or Jake or Jack - the latter name being particularly appropriate for this website!
