My Biggest DisappointmentOften the things we look forward to the most turn out to be a huge let down. As Freddy Woo puts it, "High heels in bed? No fun at all. Porn has a lot to answer for."
Well, Freddy, you are supposed to get someone else to wear them.
What's disappointed you lot?

Rugby - So typicalYes yes my team lost but how was very sad.
The Super rugby competitions in the southern hemisphere consist of Australian, New Zealand and South African clubs playing against eachother. Its a hotly contested tournament and produces fantastic rugby.
The Sharks are my life, I don't even care for the Springboks its only the Sharks. They were the most successful SA side in the history never having won it, but been on more finals than anyone. I'd seen them lose a few finals so it wasn't all bad. As long as we were better than all other SA sides, namely the Stormers or the Bulls.
So last year the Sharks were unbeaten after 6 games. They were playing such fantastic rugby it was like a dream. They played so well they ended up on top of the log, the first SA team to do so. It was a great season, we had a home final secured.
The Bulls however, were just keeping up and needed a huge win just to make the semi finals. They did it in supernatural style, beating the Reds by more than 70 points nad getting a home semi, then played the Sharks in Durban.
The final was tense, and the Sharks had just scored to be in the lead by 6 points. In Injury time the ref missed a vital foul by the bulls and Habana (ptui!) dashed through and scored which was converted and the Bull won by one point in extra time.
AAAAARRRGH!!!! I still am bitter about it. The whole room was quiet when we watched it. The whole of Durban was disappointed and took us until the World Cup final to get over it.
Although I never did....
