Anything below 16 degrees Celsius is Arctic weather.<br /><br />You know what Rooibos Tea is, even if you've never had any.<br /><br />You can sing your national anthem in four languages and you have no idea what it means in any of them. <br /><br />You know someone who knows someone who has met Nelson Mandela.<br /><br />You go to braais regularly, where you eat boerewors and swim, sometimes simultaneously. <br /><br />You produce a R100 note instead of your driver's licence when stopped by a traffic officer. <br /><br />You can do your monthly shopping on the pavement.<br /><br />You have to hire a security guard whenever you park your car.<br /><br />You know a taxi can move twice its certified number of people in one trip. <br /><br />You travel 100's of kilometres to see snow. <br /><br />You know the rules of Rugby better than any referee! <br /><br />More people vote in a local reality TV show than in a local election. <br /><br />People have the most wonderful names: Christmas, Goodwill, Pretty, Wednesday, Blessing, Brilliant, Gift, Precious, Innocence and Given, Patience, Portion, Coronation.<br /><br />"Now now" or "just now" can mean anything from a minute to a month. <br /><br />You continue to wait after a traffic light has turned to green to make way for taxis travelling in the opposite direction. <br /><br />Travelling at 120 km/h, you're the slowest vehicle on the highway/freeway.<br /><br />A bullet train is being introduced, but potholes can’t be fixed. <br /><br />The last time you visited the coast you paid more in speeding fines and toll fees than you did for the entire holiday. <br /><br />You have to prove that you don't need a loan to get one.<br /><br />Prisoners, Doctors and Nurses go on strike.<br /><br />You don't stop at red traffic lights, just in case somebody hijacks your car.<br /><br />Rwandan refugees start leaving the country because the crime rate is too high. <br />You consider a high crime rate as normal. <br />VIVA!!!<br /><br />Dad xxCoffee and Books Cape Townhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01260170267685879941noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10009339.post-43473528593071831832012-03-04T15:48:08.102+00:002012-03-04T15:48:08.102+00:00Ah, Peas the post-jol depression.
