Port Elizabeth 15 August

15 August 2011 By Alan Straton

A quick roundup of mentions of Port Elizabeth in blogs and tweets around the world for Monday 15 August 2011

MyPE provides this roundup in order to promote Port Elizabeth and to encourage fellow bloggers to expand their coverage of Port Elizabeth and surrounds.

If you are NOT a rugby fan may I suggest that you find something else to read. The amount of copy and Twittering about the upcoming Springboks vs All Blacks rugby game in Port Elizabeth on 20 August threatens to overwhelm bandwidth the world over. The last time the Springboks played against the All Blacks was in 1970 at the venerable old Boet Erasmus Stadium. Scroll right down for some carefully selected Twittering from carefully selected Twits!

And if you are looking for accommodation this weekend, may I suggest you read this: MyPE can Secure you Accommodation Ahead of the Springboks New Zealand Game.
