Quiz
When Cabindan separatists shot up Togo’s soccer team en route to the African Cup of Nations in Angola last month, killing two, South Africans flinched. They did so not only because of the horror of the attack itself but in sure anticipation of the commentary that was bound
Football Fever is Real!
It is Friday afternoon and I am eagerly awaiting the weekend. Friends of mine will be arriving from Durban. Somehow Durbanites never loose their “holiday spirit”, they always seem to be beach-ready in no time at all. After a rather hectic start to the New Year I welcome the
