NZ - and we - get behind the All Blacks

Just about every second car in Wellington had an All Black car flag on their rear window; houses had large NZ flags on their balconies; some even had flag poles with the NZ flag - oh yes, we certainly got behind 'our boys'.

I had a NZ flag on my car - Daddy had 2 flags, one NZ and one England; we hung two flags off our balcony (yes one NZ and one England ... afterall you can take the boy out of England but you cannot take England out of the boy!!). Mummy was just SO relieved that it never ended up being a New Zealand and England final. Just imagine what that would have been like ... only solace was that it would have clearly been 2 against 1 as Josh is certainly a 'kiwi' kid (sorry Daddy!)
