I do know that many of my friends are, like myself, staying well away from South Africa until it is over. Some of them tried to rent out their homes and had no takers. It was interesting to see how all the hyped-up nonsense about 'shortage of accommodation' led all the greedy sods to rack up the prices, and now they have been left with a massive over supply. The airlines also got caught out in the same way.
