lived in and around Benoni in the Transvaal for 12 years .... never got around to getting ritually-dipped 'though [same same with living here in West Aus .............. somehow it seems a bit greedy to have more than the current Brit/NZ citizenships - gotta leave something for everyone else]

Bloody Jaarpies
Me from Joburg, Eastlondon, Queenstown, Capetown, Pretoria, Uitenhage, Port Elizabeth, Kenton on sea. Plus others I cant remember cause I was too young
To every man upon this earth
Death cometh sooner or late
And how can a man die better
Than facing fearful odds
For the ashes of his fathers
And the temples of his Gods
Ha, all valies, kapies and a vrystaater!
Me from natal North Coast, Richards Bay and Hluhluwe area!

me too ........ miss the way the sky usta come over all navy blue mid-afternoons in summer in the Transvaal and all the green foliage usta sorta glow in contrast ........... then the heavens would open and it would TIP down with rain for about half an hour
rain pelting on the tin roof over the back stoep ........ *sigh* was good
was much harder for me to leave africa than it was for me to leave europe ...
