Random ramblings

Amongst the very first lessons of don't get burnt and smother yourself in sunscreen, South Africa has taught us many things. Firstly we are well off in comparison, not all people even get food or the means to build a house. As well as that, SA is full of many kinds of People, Africans, British, Greeks and kiwis. For instance I was lucky enough to have a civilised dinner with an ex professional gambler and the winner of the Ms Hooters SA, then walked out with my host, who claimed that the very expensive restaurant was average and that I would see much better women in cape town (lucky me I get to see both?). >:D

Secondly, their money system is problematic, I mean, who wants 5R cents, it probably costs more to produce and is about 1/120th of $1, very annoying to carry as well as use. In most countries I go "oo a coin on the road I want it!" with 5R cents I'm the one who puts them on the road.

At first I was unwilling to write these useless ramblings, but since I have verbal diahorrea most of the time, it is very fulfilling to badger someone once again instead of being that little twat who complains about sunburn all the time to the staff.
