    @ Pietman:
    Yes we are happy here, but we do get those confused looks from people when they hear that we have moved up from the Cape, as if we are mad.

  • 157

    Bad knock by Ihaia West… but the conditions are pretty bloody aweful

  • 158

    @ Stormersboy:
    Ha ha, also got those looks many times.
    Pretoria is a nice place to live, I don’t think I’ll be going back to CT soon

  • 159

    5 Minutes to go in the game

    Fark, anything can happen here in the last minutes…

    @ nortierd:
    been to cape town a few time and I would rather go back north than to cape town… nice place for a week holiday. crappy place to live.

  • 162

    Chiefs penalty… 1 minute to go

  • 163

    It’s not just our derbies where the teams go all out to spoil the other’s chances.
    The nature of SR

    @ nortierd:
    Best weather in the world, used to love those 4 pm highveld thunderstorms chasing the heat of the day, I miss that, especially here.

  • 165

    Final Score: Chiefs 11 / 8 Blues

  • 166

    Man alive, if that kick went over I would have been 1 point out, not 2.
    Difference between 1,5 and 2 points in my money pool.
    Pity Ancombe missed

    Ag at this stage I am playing it as it goes, never say never to anything, but for now i am happy where I am and I have too much work to cope, which is a great thing.

    Yep, but those 4pm thunderstorms have now moved to about 8-9 pm

    Talking about Pretoria, I see James Phillips aka Bernoldus Niemand who put the name “Snor city” on the map has been immortalised in a commemorative stamp by the South African Post Office together with other legends such as Lucky Dube, Taliep Pietersen and Johannes Kerkorrel.

    But I shiver each time I exit CT International and hit the N2 or R300 to Gansbaai, or when the wife has to come fetch me, gangster area… Disapproval

    @ Pietman:
    My family have a couple of places in Onrus, and I must admit I miss that place most of all. Diving for Kreef and back in the day perlies (before the Chinese). Braaing fish on a stormy night and drinking OB’s after an icy afternoon in the water.

    That’s the life.

    @ robzim:
    Serious? I thought Katman was the SnorCity originator…really!

  • 174

    170 @ robzim:
    Interesting….do people even still use stamps nowadays?
    Can’t even recall the last time I sent or received a letter

  • 175

    @ Stormersboy:
    Onrus is, and has always been my favorite holiday place.
    Love the lagoon area at the beach, especially when my daughter was still a pikanien.
    Just close enough to go to Hermanus if you want, but not too close to get all the people and traffic.

  • 176

    @ Stormersboy:
    Any place over there, Hermanus to Witsand, is fine by me. We have a smallholding in Baardskeerdersbosch of all places! Stanford is another rustic place I could easily settle in.

    Lol…. I think Katman is also a fan of James Phillips as he is quite into decent Afrikaans music.

    James Phillips also did the song ” Hou my vas Korporaal” which was the the first anti conscription song in Afrikaans.

    I think James is originally from Springs…probably went to school with Skopskiet 🙂

    @ Pietman
    Yes I grew up holidaying there, camping at De Mond caravan park having a jol at the Marine and as you say, any place from Betties to Agulhus for me.

    I will go back to the Cape to see the family over December and will squeeze in a week or 2 there while I am down.

    @ Stormersboy:
    Yip, that’s story, a man has to work, and where you are now is about as near to $pot in SA as you can get.
    Go for it!
    Verbeel jou maar jy jaag die Curriebeker! Wink

    First time I heard that description was from Katman, true!
