I'm from Tulbagh, Western Cape, South Africa. Tulbagh is a small farming community.
Get Pushed Challenge: I have been doing this challenge on and off...
A wonderful tribute for an incredible person. I have wanted to do something in his honour but haven't come close to this. Thanks, Sally!
Hamba kahle, Madiba!
I'm copying something I wrote to Morne earlier ....
it was my one and only "Madiba Moment" ...
My only "close encounter" with Madiba was when I'd flown up to Jhb to spend some time with a close friend, caught the bus from the airport to Sandton City, and as I walked from the hotel through to the shopping area, this group of people approached me from the opposite direction. I stood mesmerised as Madiba walked past. He looked directly at me and smiled. I still get gooseflesh just thinking about it.
And I do! The gooseflesh I mean! I phoned almost everyone in my contact list to tell them I'd just seen him.
