@Smuts Sappe vs Natte. Way back in the past. My broer het verongeluk by Kloovenburg. Vrou het gewerk by die Kelders , Piet Spiere was die voorsitter en het saam my broer gedien op die rugbyklub. Good old days.
Bloody hell, I just about understood that. Must be longterm Oom-mosis.

My brother had a --don't know what this is but sounds bad -- at Kloovenburg (is by a preposition or a village?). Not sure 'Vrou' is my Frau? Worked with Piet Spiere (who was a boss?) at my brother's rugby club?
Those 3 words got me confused, but am I roughly on target? Oh, don't know 'gedian'.

@nostrildamus not bad. Kloovenburg is the family farm of Piet Spiere, grand dad of PSdT. Kloovenburg.com
Vrou = Mrs.

It finished 61-7 to South Africa.
Only 22,000 turned up. If it had to happen in England, Vicarage Road in Watford or the Madejski Stadium in Reading would have been better venuese for this game.
Makes a lot of sense have a game in the uk as a warm up for the other matches to come. Players already there from last weekends urc games and pounds instead of rands. As for the venue, maybe but do we know what all the details are?
