Musings of a busy mind.

Our country is basking in the glow of that gold cup that the Bokke held up on Saturday night. Yesterday and today the social media images are just so uplifting and it has made me proud to a South African. I was touched by the kindness of people making it […]

My heart beats green & gold.

On my way to gym this morning I quickly popped into the local Checkers. We call it Checkers-in-die-gat because it is situated in small complex that resembles a hole (somehow). I had my 2011 Bokke jersey on. Man, is it hot! I think the material they used was from Jan […]

Samantha Joy

On the 22 October 2022 my groom , Lennie and his wife, Vanessa, welcomed a little girl into the world. I had no idea how this little person would change my life. The honour of naming her was bestowed on me and after much deliberation I decided that her name […]

Here is to celebrating Heritage Day. Every aspect of my life until now has shaped me into the person I am and will contribute to the heritage I will one day leave behind. I am proudly South African. The green and gold run deep in my blood. I love the […]
