Will it ever go away?

It has been WAY too long since you received a reminder from us that we did, in fact, win the 1995 Rugby World Cup.

Thanks Carte Blanche for interviewing Sean Fitzpatrick on Sunday night and, once again, subjecting us to the image of Francois Pienaar holding up the cup. It's like a disease that gets worse - like a cancer. The '95 WC cancer.

We are reminded of the '95 World Cup EVERY time we watch rugby on TV - due to the fact that there is a '95 World Cup wank-fest going on in the Supersport studios. Couldn't you clowns find something else to do other than subject us to your TV and interviewing skills which are as advanced as a tadpole's embryo?

I received the most wonderful email the other day from Ross C:

Some friends of mine visiting Cape Town for the first time have just sent me this text message:

“We just went up Table Mountain and noticed the strangest thing. There was no mention of the '95 World Cup, the drop or Francois. Not even a statue. Very strange.”

Beautifully put, friend of Ross C! Why is there no statue? Thank God!

Does anyone know how long it took the Brits to stop daily reminders of their 1966 Football World Cup win? Because we're on 10 years now...

Joel, Joost, Francois, Kobus and co., PLEASE go away.

Take a leaf out of the other '95 winners' books. Go and do something useful and let us get on with our lives. Creeps.
