On holidays

officially, until the end of the month.
Leaving in an hour for Rabastens where I'll meet other recumbent cyclists for a little ride tomorrow. Back on Sunday.

Not that you'll notice, anyway.

South Africa-England

That was supposed to be the second "must see" match of the Rugby World Cup.
36-0.
Must. See. NOT.
Ok, the english did fight. A bit. For 10 minutes. Or less.
Complete and utter domination. One way fight.

Watched the match at the Prairie des filtres with 3 colleagues. It's pretty much part of the culture in France to root for the underdog, but this was an extreme. Either the underdog is really an outsider or it's putting up a fight. England wasn't the former didn't do the latter.
They're actually the first team to lose a game with NO points.
Let's hope tomorrow's matches will be more entertaining.
Let's hope France shows is superiority on Namiby on sunday.

The South African/South Africa supporter girl on our left was utterly cute, even for a blonde.
