New Zealand v France

[Blast]

Tonight the NZ All Blacks play France at Stade Velodrome in Marseille.

After beating Australia, Italy, Wales and England on successive weekends, tonights game is being billed as the toughest.

My daughter, who is over that side of town, travelling, has been sending me quite a few texts over the last few days. Starting with the following...

Ew guess what....
Dum dum dum drum roll please...
I GOT A TICKET TO THE GAME!!!!!

I promised myself I wouldn't get jealous but the texts still kept coming so I have given up... I am officially jealous!!!

[Ikester]

Chip off the ol' block I'd say!  Taught her just how to rub it in didn't you?  How's it feel to have the hand bitten?

[mister2]

I think it's nice she keeps you informed about her life.
Again.
And again.
And again ...

well New Zealand won in fine style and she text me that she hadn't slept all night and as on a bus heading for the airport, to catch a plane to Paris. It was 9am in the morning

[mister2]

Probably the best way - I bet she slept most of the flight

[Blast]

she was hoping for a two hour sleep, I was hoping for a crying baby.

Have heard she is still going... so she must have managed some shut eye sometime.

Have heard she is still going...

Ah those were the days.........
