If I were you, I'd be looking over my shoulder for hitmen sent by the SA Bureau of Tourism.
Good Luck!

I agree,enjoyed the World Cup article very much.Remind me to ring you up to write a tourist guide if the World Cup evers comes to Detroit,I believe it would read rather similarly to yours .Good reads all.

Thanks Shamus

I am on the Derby County mailinglist as well and it's run by a tough
Irish fellow Nick Sellors. Dry sense of humour....

Anytime if they have it in Detroit....I can see it now...

"Detroit is located about an hour's bus drive from Cairo..."

Yep let me know soon as.....
