Ahhh - What a nice life
*happy sigh*
I have been in Joburg for a few days now, and I am happy as a pig in the proverbial.
Good Food
Regular Nookie
New job where I am spending an inordinate amount of time getting my feet wet.
I am happy.
However – every silver lining is surrounded by black stuff.
Traffic:
I had forgotten how bad the traffic is at peak hours. It takes me 75 minutes to travel the 51km’s to work every morning. It takes just as long to wend my way home.
Traffic Police:
I am back in the land where there are speed traps every 5km, Metro cops looking for me chatting on my cell phone at every turn and the inability to settle the issue for GHC50.000
The Swimming Pool:
My pool water is clear. The bottom of the pool looks like a bath after 15 coal miners have used it at the end of the shift. This mainly due to the fact that the Zodiac cleaner in the biggest load of hogwash that I have ever had the misfortune to purchase. That and the dogs insisting on using the pool hose as a chew toy. Loads of work will be needed to get that sorted out.

New job .... are you back in S.A. on a long term basis now .... or just passing by again!
Thought Dad would have told you :)
I am now a Director, based in JHB with responsibility for Africa North of the equator.
Based permanantly in JHB, but obviously will be spending time up north in various Jungles making money :)
He told me that you were made a director but seemed a little unsure as to your travelling status!!! Good on you lil bro, I am really happy that you can be "back to normal" with the odd trip up north!!!! But don't forget to travel North at least once to visit us!!! :)
