My 27th birthday story & All Blacks team naming against France

Well, I am now officially a 27 years old, because it is certainly my birthday today so we went out at Caroline's last night for a joint birthday dinner between me & my Dad who is now 47 years old but today we went to a Japanese restaurant called Japanese Kitchen Wa (I had cereal & toast breakfast before I took Buck for a morning walk but I had a chat with both Aunty Tania & Rejean on the phone) that I haven't been to for a while & had a bento box there & been to the splash centre for a swim before we went back home so I played a bit of Playstation such as FIFA 18 & Project CARS 2.

And the All Blacks have named their team for the 1st rugby test match of the year against France so here is the starting lineup in it's entirety:
