G' day (new) mates.

Greetings from the rugby capital of the world.:q

I became a single parent in my late 40' s (33 year-old schitzophrenic son). Started a small
joinery so as to keep an eye on him 24/7. Have somehow managed to survive for to past 15
years. Love EVERY minute of my working day...

Only discovered the internet a year ago, so please forgive my mistakes.

I' ll tackle just about anything...have the philosophy that if you can read you can do it.

Regards to all

Splinterz

Welcome to the forum. Not sure about the rugby capital of the world statement but will give you this one incredible team to watch. The tri-nationals always great time in rugby in my humble opion.

I am a Wallaby supporter.
