Hi Curio
I was born in Manchester UK and have lived in SA for 20 years. I reckon I am now more African than many living here
I have Africa in my blood and this is my home.

Hope I'm posting this in the right section.
I suppose most of you here at GB were born in S.A but were any of you born elsewhere & then emigrated to S.A?
I was born in the U.K but came over to S.A with my family as a very young child & have been here ever since.
Even though I wasn't born here, I am a true S.African in every way.

Hi Sue. I have relatives in Manchester & Leeds too. My mom is from Cheshire & my dad from Yorkshire.
They are now back in Leeds but visit us here in S.A every year or two. They will be coming over for a holiday in a few weeks time.
