Gee that was frustrating. We were playing catch-up rugby, while leading by a good margin.

Where's this ref from - not sure what she is seeing but I (and the commentators) cannot see the offences.
If she wasn't good looking I'd be calling for her replacement.

I have certainly swung the other way. As a banker(sp) I was a righty but when I got out of that and grew a heart, I started caring for all, not just the bosses.The myth of being left while young and right when you're older is largely just that, a myth.

Showers, some heavy, easing in the evening. Northerlies, turning to fresh southerlies for a time in the afternoon and evening.

I studied that quite a lot, Tehui. Lost 2 brothers to workplace injuries and got quite into Health and Safety about 25 years ago.
Turns out it really is a con in all but the most dire of cases. It's about punishment, not prevention in this country.
