Lovely sets of photos, rain or no rain. You are in an exceptionally beautiful part of the world.
I agree that the scars made by roadmakers are an abomination. Surely there were ways of doing it with more […]
colonialist commented on the post, The hypocrisy of an Afrikaner refugee, on the site SNIPPETS 2 months ago
How do you measure the progress? It is easy to measure the retrogression – it can be seen daily.
It is an incontrovertible fact that really valuable human resources have been lost to South Africa through the […]

I am glad to find you somewhere, but sad to find that somewhere not very active!
Hope you look at this some time and visit me at a scene which is more active than 24.com or LD in its heyday.

I wonder where those stats came from?
It is certainly valid that by not giving exposure to all violent crime a false perception is built up. This is irresponsible on the part of the media. They have a duty to […]

‘Fraid, for the life of me, I can’t see your argument with Max on this one. Let’s face it, Lulu’s remarks were singularly silly and insensitive. Also ironic, because the far more prevalent ‘issues’ with black […]

Fascinating discussion, much of which one cannot help agreeing with. For Socialism to work, of course, the poor need to be deserving, in that they are willing to put in whatever contribution they can – and the […]

Adele was a bit of a freak;
One thing she did do well:
To make a meatball was her treek;
She called it Freak Adele.
And when she got up every morn
She’d make a sausage course;
And out of this […]

I was wondering how you were doing just the other day! Given up blogging? I am mainly on WordPress with many others. I’d love to see pics of the batlets. Ours are certainly growing, and youngest is a paid […]

The ruling African National Congress in its various forms has reacted to an ad campaign by First National Bank in South Africa with what is tantamount to an admission of guilt on all counts.
In response, the Bank […]

To hope for an arrival
Of all the vast activity
