ha<br><br>
yeh well it happened like this. Venue booking available.. 31 Oct.. or some random date in Nov.<br><br>
then kinda went fark well if I don't book the venue for 31st then I'll be jinxing us making final.<br><br>
So basically the reason we made the final was because of my decision. You may thank me now.</p></blockquote>
Wrong. Its not your decision. I'm flying out of Wellington to Northern Laos on Friday to build an eco mud hut miles from anywhere without cellphone reception. Won't know result until a week after game.<br><br>
The reason ABs are in final is entirely due to my self sacrifice. Thank me later. -

I thought about having people over but they would probably wake up the kids and as it is I will be poor company if we aren't doing well. I will be hiding in my underground lair, living and dying with the rest of the tragics online on TSF. If we win perhaps I will venture out in the car to buy a bag full of celebratory sausage and egg Mcmuffins....</p></blockquote>

This in the Donsteppa household. I will be watching the game while pacing up and down behind the couch, muttering with the occasional loud curse thrown in, and getting glared at because You're Going To Wake Up The Kids If You Keep Doing That. -

Will do. I'll be thinking of your mud huts whilst I'm drinking tequila on my mechanical bull. -

<p>It's been Chieka's major mistake - naming STirling MOrtlock's bastard son, STephen MOore, as captain. </p> -

<p>Well after thinking about how stressed I get when I'm rushing to catch a regular AB match..and thinking how much more compounded that might be with waking up at an ungodly hour, traffic, finding a park and dealing with legless drunks, especially when they are my mates, I've decided instead to book a table at Boundary bar in Raumati and if the result goes well then charge into town and celebrate and if not then potentially shuffle off to my accommodation..or into town to drown sorrows. Incidentally if anyone is at a loose end in the Wellington area and fancies a TSF catchup flick me a PM and I can increase the table booking.</p>

I been lucky enough to go to the QF and SF and on Sat will be heading to HQ with my hot little tickets in hand. Have had a couple of mates fly in from Auckland for it so getting plenty of warm ups in this week. Sat will be a big pub lunch near Twickenham followed by heading to the stadium and soaking up the atmos, watching the game then firing up afterwards. <br><br>
I'm looking forward to all this being over, mainly to give my liver a rest. -
Tensions will be high in the NQ household. Mrs NQ is a Wallabies supporter and was 11 years old the last time they won the thing.<br><br>
This could be a defining moment in our relationship. If we don't get the job done then I will have "4 more years" taunts for, well, the next 4 years. I'm not sure I can handle that.<br><br>
My son was born in Auckland so is a Small Black through and through. Being 2 he is just learning to talk, but 2 of his favourite phrases are "Go All Blacks!" and "Come on Ref!" so I have him well trained for the occasion.<br><br>
We will watch the game at home, really not sure what will happen after the match though.... -
<p>The wife and I will be having a hangovertini at skybar , followed by a nice dinner at Sirroco.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We shall then (depending on other suggestions, Siam) head to the Kiwi Pub & Grill to watch the game.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I'm hoping for a kiwi heavy population, because in 2003 I was in Canada watching with a bunch of aussies, there was some trouble, and I forgot that I'm a shit fighter.</p> -

<p>Aussies stopped turning up when it was clear we weren't about to win the thing any time soon, and they suddenly remembered they're not rugby fans because its a fucking private school c***'s game.</p>

<p>Maybe next year.</p> -

<p>Apparently! I've been working the fern knowledge (gracias Siam) to get an idea of where things are. We're at the Lebua, so hoping it doesn't piss down on Saturday, because we're eating outside :)</p> -
<p>On a mates farm in the wopwops-same as last week vs Bokke,(only Japanese beer was allowed so heaps of Sapporo and Asahi). This weekend numerous cases of Steiny Classic 750ml ready to go. </p>
<p>Dozen mates with insignificant others attending begining around 0100hrs. </p>
<p>Me old mate Guppy has a massive grill with no shortage of rump/sirloin/fillet steak/ lamb chops/pork belly strips and even a few kgs of garlic and cheese borewors for good measure.</p>
<p>Go the ABs!!!</p>
