Happy Birthday Heather T

:bday3:

may you have a wonderful day

Two blondes are in Los Angeles,
One blonde was looking at a travel brochure and asks the other...."Which is further, London or the Moon?" The other blonde replies:
"HELLOOOOO!!!!!! Can you see London from here?????!!!!!"


:crylol: :mmm:

After our hi-jacking I had to apply for a new passport (I had also got married so it had to be in my new name).
I received it 15 days after my application went in.... And the secret? I asked for the Director General of Home Affairs Secretary. Got chatting to her and told her how serious it was and the dear girl followed up for me everyday. So some good things do happen at our Home Affairs. :worthy:

Then it was the Spouse Visa... Now there was a problem. When I was previously in the UK for 4 years on my now ex husbands ancestral visa, we separated and he came back after 2 years - I stayed on. Bad bad bad - it would appear as I was an 'illegal' for the next 2 years...

So I have had lots of phone calls from the consulate, lots of extra documents to supply... but yesterday I received my Spouse Visa.. HAPPINESS !!

We now leave SA next Wednesday and I must admit that I am now only beginning to get excited. The stress of the past few days is beginning to fade.

I have just about got rid of all that I have to, sorted out what must be packed and what must be given away etc and hopefully I will now just enjoy the next few days.

Today is my last day at work as well, so it is now chill out time !

Cant wait to get to the UK - just 5 sleepies more !!

I noticed over the past couple of weeks that it's been in a gradual decline and last night saw it had slipped way past the R14 to the £ mark.

Great for people travelling to SA but horrendous again for the South Africans living there.

Is the slide due to Zuma's case being thrown out of court or some other form of government bungle or is it a matter of the currency speculators having a field day like they did a few years ago when it fell to R20 to the £ ?

At the time of writing this and being on the phone it fell 5c!

I heard this coming weekend is long weekend in SA. Does anyone know what holiday it is?

I also heard that Sunday is "Braai Day" in SA.... think we all will have to celebrate this unique day.

:braai: ue:

You can visit http://www.bassons.org for a full list of all South African artists performing in the Benelux. Anton Goosen will perform in Holland and Belgium on the week-end of October 20th, Casper will be in Amsterdam in November and much more....

'n Vriendin was onlangs in SA en bring toe twee boekies van Riana Scheepers saam. "Haai, Katriena -wat vertel jy my nou!" en "Katriena, nee!"

Katriena is die huishulp en sy het allerhande stories aan haar Mevrou te vertelle. Dit is kostelik en as jy lekker wil lag - sommer hardop wil lag - kry gerus die boekies.

Ek lees:
".... Ennyway, die man moes ok die dag die bybie oppas. En alles het goed gegaan totlat die kleintjie begin vaak word en honger en sy ma se tietie beginne soek. Toe begin die geskrou." :babyroll:

"Vertel my," se^ Mevrou, "ek weet alles daarvan af."
"Maar die bybie het nie te lank aangegaan nie."
"wat het die man gedoen?"
"Mevrou, toe die vrou by die huis kom, toe is alles tjoepstil en sy sien niemand nie. Sy kon haar ore nie glo nie, want sy het gedink sy sal hom al 'n blok ver van die huis hoor skrou. Toe stap sy suutjies die huis in en die gan af, en wat sal sy sien?"
"Ja wat?" vra Mevrou.
"Daar le die man en die bybie altwee op die bed, vas aan die slaap soos twee engele uit die hemel. En toe sien die vrou wat die man gemaak het."
"Wat Katriena?"
"Hy het 'n blik ondens uit die spens gaan haal, Mevrou, sy hemp uitgetek en sy twee manstieties dik met die kons gesmeer. Toe't hy die kleintjie lat proe aan die gedoente, en soos die kleintjie die kondes van die een kant afsuig, sorg hy dat die anner kant alweer kondens ophet. So het die bybie aan die man se kondenstieties gesuig totlat hy vanself aan die slaap geraak het. Toe die vrou hulle kry, slaap hulle vas, en die lakens is die ene kondens."

:haha:
