[wdvltalk-social] RWC Day Three

[edc_quik@ihug.co.nz]

Today:

Australia v Italy
Ireland v USA
Wales v Springboks

Taking advantage of the fact that there are only three games today I decided to get to the supermarket to get in some food, decided
to catch a bus and guess what, the bus was black flagged!

The local races in New Plymouth [USA v Ireland venue] are doing their bit, every race there are jockeys wearing Irish and USA
colours, so far USA flagged jockeys are ahead, but I doubt that can be taken as an omen.

gun against a nuclear missile"
