Well people it’s alllll about to kick off this Friday with the opening ceremony and first game of the Rugby World Cup in my gorgeous homeland of New Zealand! As a Kiwi living in the UK at the moment it’s very surreal to think all this is going on back in my wee country but it’s all very exciting!

Only thing that kinda sux is that some of the All Blacks games are on a Friday morning UK time when I’m at that place that makes me do stuff for money haha. Oh well… I’ll just have to keep checking the updates in my break! I’m heading home to NZ in mid-October so should catch the quarter-finals onwards back with Mum and Dad in Christchurch. Wow that is very weird to think I’ll be back home soon! After being over here for over two & a half years it’s gonna be very odd I’m thinking… specially with all the earthquake damage etc. What I’ve decided to do is sort through all the photos I took of places in Christchurch before I left for the UK and find some good ones to show a before/after shot showing what’s left… if anything. Going to be very sad but I will no doubt put it on here.

Anyways… somehow I got sidetracked from the topic of this post haha which is the rugby! Click here to see a video on YouTube that shows how awesome my country is and how excited they are to host this event!
