@voodoo Ah rhymes with blokes, easy to remember!
Yeah my tip for Afrikaans would be to speak English with a very heavy Scottish accent and you're most of the way there.

@Bones sprinkle “ja, nee, thank you, dankie”, “jou ma se poes”, bliksem, doos and “donderse ref” in liberally and Bob’s your mother’s brother.

I know better than to utter the second one...
This one is worth knowing though....jy is 'n mooi meisie.
Try saying Ek verstann nie and not sounding like a drunk Glaswegian.

@Bones take it up a notch when you’re on the charm: “jy is lieflik” (you’re lovely) or if you’re feeling properly cheesy: “nee, dis onregsverdig om so pragtig in so snaaks te wees.” (No, it’s unfair to be so beautiful and so funny.)
Or: “Parys? Geen wonder jy’s so gesofistikeerd.” (Parys - a shithole, substitute Germiston, Poffadder, Tweebuffelsmeteenskotfointein or whichever armpit of the universe your jarpie lass is from - no wonder you’re so sophisticated)In my experience, This is about when her unreasonably large Rockspider boyfriend shows up squinting out from a brow showing an improbably prodigious depth of bone behind it. So you got to diffuse the situation:
“Luister kerel, Stephanie/Amor/Lizette het my nou net gevra of sy my die strand/Suid Afrikaanse sterre kin wys.” (Listen Oke, Annetjie/ Patrys/Hannelora just asked me if she could show me the beach/South African stars.)

Hell this has been one loooooooong week. Can we have some bloomin' rugby already!
Sort of makes me think it would have been nice to have a plate competition running to fill the gap mid-week.
I have no idea whether that's a good or bad concept for anyone else, but at least i'd have something to watch and talk about. -

It's more rugby for teams that generally don't get much test footy.
Be hard to get up for for teams like Argentina, Fiji, Scotland (even Italy ... But not in 2019) who had designs on the main draw, but still a worthwhile exercise IMO.

As an aside, a multi on England/Wales final is over $10 at TAB...less than $2 for a NZ/SA multi

@mariner4life I record and avoid during the day, not hard during reg season. Much harder during playoffs and finals when every cnt suddenly becomes an expert and fan
