And plenty of those ''upper class Ruperts'' you referred to fought and lost their lives in 2 world wars to help rid the world of fascist regimes, so that you have the freedom to scathingly refer to them.

I for one am sorry that the English came second. We have a Union Jack in the corner of our national flag, long may it stay there.

Wakey wakey Robert. Do you want to go a re-read my post, bearing in mind that I'm English?

Yes fair call, didnt dredge back too far! There is a ''fashion'' in this country to knock the English and I really resent that, being not too far removed myself, English grandfather, Mother conceived in England.

I think also that a good many Kiwis that do OE in the UK dont fully integrate. I did so during my time there ( 5 years ) and beleive I have a balanced and fair view of the English.

Well at least England made the final, I thought both teams played realy well SA did enough to win the game and thats all it takes. England still get to second place, Argie's get third, Frogs get 4th and I leave the rest up to you to decide whare the rest ended up.Well done South Africa hard luck England.
