Hi folks, well if its any consolation for you ignorami they wont be drawing 0-0 or any other score from here on in.
Iwas at the Cameroon vs Holland game on Thursday. Man, it was great – fell in love with my city all over again. All the boertjies were in orange whether they knew anything about the game or not. Even English speaking Capies were all of a sudden decked out in orange. I had to wonder how many of these Johnny-come-lately English speaking Dutch supporters had on more than one occasion referred to boetjies as Dutchmen in the past, hehe! Got ribbed a bit for supporting Cameroon but what the heck, it was a wonderful occasion.
