Late in the afternoon our Minister’s PA phoned to ask for some info as the Minister planned to write her budget speech tonight. So instead of enjoying the Kudu ‘spitbraai’ I was sitting at my computer desperately trying to e-mail some info to her using my cellphone as a modem.
Only when I recharged the cell phone and computer batteries back in the guesthouse later that night did I succeed.
And one of the highlights at supper – an Afrikaans colleague when offered a glass of Chardonay says, “Sorry its not to my tongue”. The others, knowing that his favourite drink was brandy and Coke decided, “Not enough Coke”!
