  • Boks in Cardiff

    On Saturday we went to Cardiff to see the Boks take on Six-Nations Champions Wales. I’ve already posted The Millennium Stadium Experience on BokRugby.com so be sure to read it, but I just wanted to add here that one of the things I wanted to try out was taking action photos of the players. Unfortunately…

  • Will Roland Schoeman defect to Qatar?

    I have just read in an Australian newspaper that Roland Schoeman, world record holder and one of South Africa’s top swimmers, has been offered Millions of Dollars to defect to and subsequently represent The Kingdom of Qatar. Qatar is an oil-rich Middle Eastern country that has no swimming history whatsoever. Here in my comfy armchair,…

  • Joze Gonzalez/Sony Bravia advert

    I don’t know how many people have seen the new Sony Bravia advert, but I think it is fantastic. See the Sony Bravia advert. The music is one of the things that make it. The song is called Heartbeats and it is off the album Veneer by Joze Gonzalez. You can buy it from iTunes.

Again that man Brenden Nel and I have teamed up to produce a quality rugby news site. Most of it will be from a…

Currently the site is in the Blogger format, but we’ll be switching to WordPress soon. If you do have any rugby writing credentials or other Bull affilations,…

  • Clapham Common Fireworks

    We went to see the annual fireworks at Clapham Common on Friday. I wanted to experiment with night time photography as I’d not really had any success with this before. I did learn a lot and I’m looking forward to the next oppurtunity, but I do think I managed to take some nice ones. View…

  • Anger towards Sony gains momentum

    I first heard about this on the excellent Security Now! podcast and it really pissed me off! Sony – yes that previously reputable company – has taken a positive step to alter your operating system without you being aware of this! No this is not some alarmist statement thrown out there to get ratings. This…

  • The Heunis Family

    I don’t know nearly enough about the Heunisses so I’m thinking of putting together a Heunis database. I figure that Heunis.NET will be a good place to host this as well. All I know of the Heunis family tree from my sisters (Katinka Ladewig and Abbie Heunis) and I (Attie Heunis) up is: Rulan Heunis…
