No soccer game last night? Or yesterday afternoon either? How did we live without soccer?
Meanwhile the South African Navy boats are furiously charging up and down keeping us safe. From what, I am not sure. I thought we were fine, but then what do I know. Apparently the powers that be intercepted a terrorist plot on our borders.
Back in the apartheid days we had APLA, who bombed amongst other places the Helderberg Bar and Robert Mc Bride of the ANC, who was involved in the bombing of Magoo’s Bar. That sort of thing has not happened here in years. Thank God.
We had the Truth and Reconciliation Commission where individuals on both sides of the apartheid fence were given amnesty in exchange for confessions.
The biggest issue at hand right now is who to support through to the semi-finals.
