It made little impact here. Soccer in NZ is a very minor sport. Our national side, the All Whites, has about the same level of playing skill as the Argentine Rugby team - possibly less. The Rugby world cup has just started in Wales and I know I'm going to have to do my darnedest to avoid it here. - andrew. -- Andrew Smith, Intheologus hobbit@earthlight.co.nz Giles: Honestly, Buffy.
