They both won in there respective teams, with Thomas scoring a superb try!

    Hi taxi we haven't been to the south island yet, and neither has my mum so hoping to do a bit of that. but there is a lot to see, and I am increasingly not prepared to do all the scivvying on holiday. there have been a couple recently where all i have done is housework with a better view! so am putting my foot down and don't want to cook for a week. Had a holiday like that last year, no cooking for a week heaven!

    Sounds lovely...don't blame you not wanting to cook/clean...it's no holiday when you've got all that to do.

    Exactly for some reason, OH doesn't get why I would be so dead set against cooking etc whilst on holiday, oh and doing the packed lunches etc etc.....

    Still should be fun and the scenery down there is fab. Also you can go and watch penguins in the wild, how cool is that:T
