While on the election trail of meetings promoting my dream of a purpose built stadium at the Domain I bumped into none other than Brian, the Rabbit, Rogers. I also bumped into his wife Claire which was far more enjoyable and he said why don't you write for us again.
They laid on a fantastic feed at the fantastic venue at No. 1 The Strand that night, so with a mouthful of tucker I said, alright I will.
And what a week it as with the Australian's having to stand on the silver dais in the 7's rugby and the netball looking like they had sucked lemons at half time. Hori don't be a bad sport, and I say no, no no, I'm just saying what most of New Zealand thinks. Where have I heard that before?
The mighty Steamers blew Southland off the park and back to the pole after the referee had blown them off the park at Blenheim the week before, and we still look likely for a semi-final spot. Then again how do you make God laugh folks? Yes, you tell him you've made plans. Torment the Taniwha Boys and bring home the pies from Northland.
The miners in Chile made history and of course sport was involved. A soccer star of Chilean football legend was number 23 but the own goal of the rescue had to be Number 22, Dr House as he was nicknamed because of his medical skills. As he surfaced so did his mistress and all he could do was hide behind his sparking new sunglasses in front of billions of people and an irate wife looking on from somewhere. A Greek holiday resort has offered the miners a weeks holiday with a person of their choice which was obviously an out clause designed for Dr House. So to complete this Greek tragedy go to Greece, Dr House and after some R&R and in true Greek tradition enter a marathon to anywhere and keep running. Do not return to Chile because there's an irate wife with a box of matches and stick of dynamite waiting to shove it you know where. Oh the tangled web of life humans weave.
So long for now and may I recommend Pat Lam's chicken camembert and apricot pie.
In ya nitemares. Hori.
