Nicholls595 Nov 2020 2:53pm, 24 Nov 2020 22,801 posts	0 Nicholls595 Agree re: football. I struggle with everything football related at the moment.

Nicholls595 Nov 2020 12:14pm, 25 Nov 2020 22,808 posts	0 Nicholls595 Hit and giggle stuff against the Saffers starts on Friday. First and third matches 4pm kick off, 2nd match 2.30pm Sunday. First and third ODI's have 11am starts, so perfect for filling a quiet day in the office.
