What people do is throw stuff at the opposing team (or anyone else they feel like).<br /><br />EB: We can always sleep in the car :-)<br /><br />Frally: I've never been to Norsewood. It's where they make all those big woolly jumpers isn't it?<br /><br />Flying Kiwi: I think there's a mini castle in Hastings isn't there?Violethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10547452802344363142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085694.post-1109961664017776892005-03-05T07:41:00.000+13:002005-03-05T07:41:00.000+13:00There's always Eketahuna... ;)

And although it's not as nice, you could always stay in Hastings - only 15 min from Napier.<br /><br />Jon: it's a one day international (ODI), so unlikely to last for days...flying kiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15612443077127662318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085694.post-1109930152235738952005-03-04T22:55:00.000+13:002005-03-04T22:55:00.000+13:00My inlaws live two hours away in Norsewood, a smal...My inlaws live two hours away in Norsewood, a small village up a bit from Dannevirke. They run an antiques shop there. You could always duck in, mention that you know Frally through blogging and could we stay here the night? Their likely response will be "Who's Frally? And what's this 'blogging' you speak of?" but it's worth a shot.Frallyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17675354826656796981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6085694.post-1109923221682996042005-03-04T21:00:00.000+13:002005-03-04T21:00:00.000+13:00Cricket hooligans?

I've heard of football hooligans, but considering that cricket matches can last for days, they must be REALLY scary since they'd need to be hopped up on stimulants just to stay awake.<br /><br />In my opinion, if anyone is so fanatic about sports that they would cause harm to other people, they need to get a life, or chemical castration to make them less angry- or both!Jonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11250936677072664743noreply@blogger.com
