Springbok's v All Blacks

History was made on Saturday 6th August 2005, when the Springbok's took on and beat the All Blacks during their Tri-Nation fixture at Newlands in Cape Town. The Cooke's joined in with the festivities, which started at 11am with a breakfast at our house, with of course wine, beer and champagne. Then a mini bus trip to the ground and back again after the game, with a meal for everyone in the Cape Courtyard in Hout Bay. So all in all a great, full day.

At the rugby was the Cooke Family, Dave, Carol and Luke, Luke's girlfriend Amie and her parents David and Dawn and her older brother Nick and his girlfriend Jemma, there was also David and Dawns close friend Vivian and her daughter Becky.

In addition at the breakfast was Mark and Julie Wardle, friends from Zambia on route to Singapore, and their three children, Asha, Jazz (Dave's god son) and Themba. Also there was Neil Roper from Pretoria making a farewell visit to Cape Town before he relocates to London.

In addition to all these at the meal were some other friends, Simon and Jane Scott. Who could forget Simons red tartan trews?
