Only in the R S of A

[El Stiemo]

Hi guys,

I wasn't sure whether this belongs under the jokes section, but anyway.

Only in South Africa. I should maybe explain the Afrikaans stickers on the back of the truck so that our english speaking friends can also understand that:

The one in the middle means "yellow lane driving my a**
The one on the left means "suicide side"
The one on the right means "overtaking side"

I hope this works

Hi El,

The BMW belongs to a mate of mine, Alan Coleman. He runs a collectables store at the National Military Museum in Johannesburg.

I know the bloke with the cardboard sign. The intersection he is standing in is very close to where I work, on the corner of Oxford Road and Corlett Drive.

The intersection is particularly memorable because that's where a mate of mine was arrested for streaking after we won the Rugby World Cup in 1995. We were all at a pub only 100m from the intersection, and when Stransky's drop kick went over, the country exploded. Grown men cried, women fainted, and my friend Ian stripped off all his kit and ran off down Oxford Street kaalgat :D . He was arrested by a traffic policeman and brought back to the pub. When the cop figured out what was going on, he joined the celebrations.

And good eisbein, kasler, bokwurst etc. etc. etc.

Cool thanks Marc,

now I know what to have for lunch - some Eisbein in the Brauhaus in the pedestrian Mall here in Swakop...

By the way it's not always all happy clappy here, at the moment we've got a sandstorm here (eastwind) and I had to go to Walvis Bay this morning and when I came back, the windshield of the Landy was properly sandblasted...

:Bloodymad

Eisbein, Brauhaus..... I'm jealous, because I really enjoy German food. I have a strange collection of German friends, and they meet every first Wednesday of each month at Schwabinger Stube in Randburg, where the food is excellent. Schweine Hachse, Eisbein, Erbsensuppe, Rosti, Kartoffelpuffe, Raucheraale, Lachs, Schmalzbrot etc. etc. etc. They usually have a barrel of Kolsch beer from Cologne which goes down very well too...

A good mate of mine runs a pub/restaurant and he's having a promotion this evening. Topless waitresses, strippers, and eat-as-many-tiger-prawns-as-you-can for R150. (He's Portuguese, and his uncle imports LM prawns from Mozambique at around R25 per kg.)

I'm doing him a moerse favour by going along, 'cos I don't really like topless waitresses, strippers, or prawns :D They don't serve Becks at the pub, so it'll be Windhoek Draught or Whiskey tonight.

Rgds,
Marc
