Thanks for sticking with us through the barren news times of the last few weeks, dear Sharksworld readers!
This is Sharksworld signing off – temporarily, I must stress! – for a short Christmas break. The house is full of family, we have wonderful celebrations planned, the tree is up, most of the gifts are wrapped, carols on the iPod and I’ve got the charcoal all ready to braai our Christmas duck on the Weber tomorrow (got to keep it traditional somehow!). Rugby is the furthest thing from the mind right now and I’m sure you’ll all concur that it’s now time to forget about the black and white, just for a little bit, as we concentrate on the red, green and gold of Christmas!
For those of you who share our faith, I’d like to wish you a peaceful and blessed Christmas, in the hope that the love and light of Christ can fill us all and prepare us to reflect that light towards all we meet in the coming year and beyond.
For those of other faiths, or none at all, the wishes of peace, happiness, prosperity and a wonderful few days off with family and friends around are no less heartfelt.
Merry Christmas one and all!

Thanks Rob. Merry Christmas to all my Sharksworld friends. I hope you all have a great time with family and friends!
A very Merry Christmas to you too Rob 🙂
And as Pokkel so eloquently put it Merry Christmas to All on Sharksworld , have a great and safe time 🙂
Merry Christmas everyone!!! I hope everyone has a happy holiday.
Have a wonderful and blessed Christmas everyone and also all the best for the New Year.
Enjoy whatever you all doing, just please don’t drink and drive. Take a taxi or get one that don’t take a drink to drive. Enjoy yourselves.
To our Sharks hope we have a brilliant 2012. 😎
Catch up next year.
Have a blessed time folks – I already have a piece for you next week on the Sharks and the challenges they face. But for now, enjoy the next couple of days with your loved ones – stay safe.
