Chakalaka I can accept, but I have to admit that pap (sadza as it is known where I was raised) doesn't really 'turn my crank'. I suspect that your average Brit or American would not be overly impressed with it, but I acknowledge it's place in the southern African kultur! Horses for courses!
It is a
marvellous day out today in the southern UK, is it not? Do I fire up the Weber again? Hmmmm. Those of you from elsewhere on our Blue Marble might wonder why we enthuse so much about a couple of days of warmth and sunshine - it is rare here to
sustain such weather, that is why. Ordinarily we might awake to blue skies, consider a barbeque, followed by a long walk with the dogs, only to find that within 30 minutes the wind has picked up and there is 8/8 cloud cover. And it remains so for the rest if the day.
I do miss those wide open African skies and empty spaces ....... but I don't give a damn for African politics.
