I have doubts about how long my pension will last when I convert rands into pounds at the exchange rate of nearly 14 to 1. I might still move but right now, who knows for how long though, live in SA is still good. With the trouble which is starting in the north thinbgs could get a bit hairy but one hopes that the government is going to put a lid on it. Weather I can weather (pardon the pun) but starving is not an option. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

Come to think of it didn't you pay for the drinks Ron? Or did that 7% alcohol local brew give me amnesia? Wow, that was potent stuff! They brew it strong in Oxford me mate. Richard thanks but to be honest things are not going too well at present. I seem to missing my wife more and more as the months go by. Not getting over losing her as I thought I might as time passed. Perhaps things will get better later. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
