Great game. Very tense. Only one point in it. At one stage I shouted at the TV. "Remember the Rainbow Warrior". Big celebrations in NZ having just won the World Cup by defeating France.
Yes, Eden Park is in Auckland. The World Cup series was to have been played in Christchurch, which unhappily is still closed down after the devastating earthquakes in September of last year and February of this year. About 4000 families have now moved away from Christchurch - school populations are down and the effect will probably mean about 300 teachers being redundant. Still the World Cup win will be a shot in the arm for the whole country. 73 Kevin VK3DAP / ZL2DAP On 23/10/2011 4:15 PM, Wayne Burdick wrote: > I've been to NZ and wish I could be there now.
