That's so cool. There were plenty of positive rugby mania vibes indeed!
Replying to @flavourcape
Great, almost daily articles from @craigray11; first thing I turned to in @dailymaverick before the more depressing news. I can see a big welcome home awaits!

Magnificent tour! Recognise that Sept pic, of you on the Seine.... great memories. Your family looks forward to having you home in Cape Town today xx
Started in 38 degrees in Paris, ended in 8 degrees and glory seven weeks later. Merci France. It’s been magnifique. #RWC2023

It's 2:15am here in Paris...back in my abode, still trying to process that. A magnificent final needs 2 superb teams. So happy for Siya and Boks. Feel for NZ. Personally, I will miss Aaron Smith and Brodie immensely. Boks v ABs is the gold std in rugby. #NZLvRSA #RWCFinal

Siya Kolisi: “We really wanted it, we knew how tough it was going to be. The people back at home, they can’t afford to be here, but they send videos, schools sing for us. We play for a nation, it’s not for us. Win or lose, we will always fight for it.” Love this #RWC2023

Totally…the unions agreed to accept the independently assessed preferred bidder, which was SA. Instead world rugby still decided to hold a vote and suddenly it went to France. The ind assessed report was never meant as a guideline. It was supposed to be binding.
Today's news really taints next year's RWC. There was a stench when it was awarded to France and now three key figures in France's success have been found guilty of corruption charges. It's no use to South Africa or Ireland at this stage, France will get the gig regardless

Women who still have no news of their loved ones
On the #IndependenceDay of #Ukraine, relatives of the defenders of #Mariupol and #Azovstal came to Khreshchatyk with a call to free their sons and husbands. #FreeAzov #Azovstaldefenders #FreeAzovstalDefenders 📹 @ZarinaZabrisky

Happy Ukrainian Independence Day. Not.
Residents of #Mariupol report the occupiers are blocking roads near Philharmonic Hall, where #Russia is to hold a puppet tribunal over Ukrainian POWs. Under international law, individuals entitled to prisoner-of-war status have combatant immunity; such pseudo-tribunal is a crime.
Shocking state of affairs. Where are these children's human rights?
More than 1,000 children were kidnapped by #Russians in occupied #Mariupol, reports the #Ukrainian Foreign Ministry. According to the #Krasnodar City Department of Family Affairs, more than 1,000 children from occupied Mariupol were illegally handed over to outsiders in #Russia.
A thin and gaunt Alexei Navalny at an appeal hearing just now - first time we saw him at the high security prison he was moved to earlier this month.

True words 😅
I’ll only be worried about the vaccine if it emerges that a Tour de France cyclist refused it. Those guys will inject anything.
