Wow! You arrived and right into "work"

Another wow, for it is 48 years since this green travelling Kiwi took up residence in Berea, a suburb in Johannesburg with a mixed bag of flatties among them a reporter from the Rand Daily Mail. That was you! Although I knew you were travelling to ZA, I did not really think about it until reading the article.

Glad to hear that you arrived safely. It was interesting to compare your writing today with that of your youth. I’d say you’ve come a long way! It was also interesting to learn that you were somewhat of a rebel, and left South Africa under less than normal circumstances. Good for you for standing up for your beliefs. It must have been an exciting time for you. Have a great vacation.
