Just got back. 8)

No internet in my hotel. :(

well what can i say about South Africa. Slums, poverty and crime. still it was sunny. but so is Spain and you can go out after dark and isn't a 12 hour flight.

I must admit i would not choose to go there again unless someone paid me :)

Now i need some sleep. Grrrr night flights

Well I think South Africa is great - going out after dark isn't a problem, there are simply places you don't go, just as much as in london, and you have to be more aware, if that means sinking one or two less jars then so be it.
It's a great way of life: the braai, rugby, cricket and beer culture is right up my street, and I ahve property and family out there so the actual costs once I'm out there aren't that high!

I must disagree. I have walked all over London, at all times of the night. with out problem. The guy I was working out there with said I was in a "safe area" but I should not wander around after 10. You have to ask how safe when every window and door is barred.,every house has an armed response poster outside and every time you get in a car you get automatically locked in.

I'm sure if I had been in a tourist area or the centre of cape town, I would have a total different view of the place. but from where I was in the sticks, It wasn't great :(

As for the cost of living. it's a strange situation. you can go out for a nice meal with wine for a £10. but CD's still cost £10-15. It's basically all home grown products are as chip as chips. but euro imports are close to uk prices. The guy who was taking me around out the was driving a TT. which he paid over £30,000 for.

I haven't seen any Audi TT's on Aszune yet - clearly I need to level up more as I am only able to buy a horse :(
