Let me put it this way… I’m not desperate for company.

I’ve had enough company today already, 4 visitors earlier to come fetch something and their little one had a jol in my pool whilst I was braaiing…

grootblousmile on 4 October 2015 at 4:44 pm

Morath misses another shot at goal… simply not good enough to posts!

The_Young_Turk on 4 October 2015 at 4:44 pm

I miss a good braai, send me some nice chops quickly.
