The reason i've been so quiet for the past couple of days is a) nothing short of a miracle, and b) because i have a weekend of sheer debauchery bearing down upon me like some bergie with exceptionally pungent halitosis seeping out from between the gap in her front teeth. Aaauugh - makes the very hairs on the back of my neck stand on end.
Zimfest 2006 is upon us. God help us all.
Every year, a billion relocated 'Zimbos' and their Saffa (FOK that's such a stupid word - the person who invented it deserves to have Manto Tshabalala-Msimang shoved up their arse) mates, who just wish they were Zimbos, get together for a day of boerie rolls, Bollingers beer, homegrown tunes and one hell of a laugh bumping into all the ex's from schooldays and checking out who's voluntarily turned themself into a massive billboard for the infamous Heathrow Injection.
Of course i'm the new kid on the block so, against my better judgement, i thought it best to put on a brave face (and a squirt of Uber-Dork-Repel on my neck) and brave it into the masses to see what all the fuss is about. This little 'day in the rain' must get disgustingly out of hand if the last minute change of venue is anything to go by. Apparently residents who live near to this year's proposed location, caught wind of it and complained to the police... 5 days BEFORE IT EVEN BEGAN. If i make it out of there alive and without someone else's carrots all over my shoes, it'll be a small miracle. May the farce be with me.

survived ?! it sounds... joyfull ! in the depth of my French countryside I wonder if I'm really missing this sort of hassle ! So, enjoy it for me, please and tell us about !
Hello you
Saw your hilarious comment to me at Kyk...lol...love your blog...will link you ducks.
From the SAFFA in Frogland..(Yes I have read your entire blog..and know how much you LOVE that term..fnar fnar...)
fd - yay i'm alive. next time i'll hit the french countryside and you try the hassle instead. much better plan methinks.
geena - hello madame saffa (",) shot for the link - you rock. Vive la France, you lucky bugger. In fact both of you are lucky buggers!
Pardon us Madam Zimbo (because that is DEFINITELY NOT a stupid word) - as one of the SAFFA's who has the (mis)fortune (for some reason) of having mostly mates of Zimbabwean origin - you should be praising our impeccable taste, not berating us! Think about it - if not for me, your Peanut Butter jokes would be non-existent (and that would indeed be a sorry loss)!
