Just add slake lime, then cook for a long as possible

Allez les Pumas (Spanish lessons appreciated)

How does one say "Go Argentina!" in Spanish? Or alternatively "Go, Pumas!".
Either will do. Both would be super.

It would, after all, be quite nice for the World Cup to head south, as long as it doesn't end up in Jo'burg or that general part of the world.

Alternatively it will be a case of Allez Les Bleus (or the pointy ball version of that round ball exhortation). Being quite serious, Argentina are the only team left in this tournament I give a fig about.

And if they're not standing after the semi finals I'll have no option but to support the Frogs (though admittedly the Frogs could also be out of it before the Argentina-Sith Africa Semi). So any help with rude things to say to any Boers I meet between now and the conclusion of the semi, as well as any proper Argentina (Spanish) rugby songs would be great.

Thanks.

I believe its "Vamos Los Pumas".

And yes, Argentina are my new favourite team in this world cup. I didn't see them beat Scotland, but I did watch the Ireland game last week and the Pumas were very impressive. They have a decent chance of beating South Africa and making the final - hopefully vs France.

I watched Fiji vs SA last night. Good game, expecially during the 5 or 10 minutes in the 2nd half where Fiji looked to be on the verge of an upset. If only they'd scored in the corner instead of being tackled into touch, what might have been?
