How on Earth do Australians survive? I thought Africa was a dangerous place. All we have are lions, hippos, crocs, buffalo, hyenas etc.

What animal would you choose to represent yourself? Like the British lion, SA springbok and American eagle, what would yours be?

I'd be a leopard because they are everything I wish I was: beautiful, graceful, fiercely independent and boy can they climb trees.

Hey Buttercup.

I'm a SAFFER! PM me and I can give you details of how to get in touch with other South Africans.

Does anyone have any experience of a Daihatsu Fourtrak. I'm considering buying one. Its a 1985 model. I'd like to hear other people's impressions of them.

Hi Uncle Fester

I've just spent the weekend in your part of the world. Stayed in a B&B in Neath and went cycling in the Afan Forest.

Aye, its something we indulge in in this neck of the woods. Check out the North and South Downs. It might not be Fort Bill but at least it isn't always raining and cold.
