Wow! Brilliantly written Warren! I had forgotten that you intended to visit the island! Very interesting indeed!

I remember my first visit to Cape Town looking at that island and thinking why is South Africa doing this.

I remember on my last visit going on a slightly crazy evening drive through a black township. We had to keep our heads down. Afterwards we visited a bar where one of Warren's friends was a banned person. I remember walking up to meet him and Warren suggesting that we back off as these two burly looking guys approached. They were the State watchers... Not sure of the correct name.
