naked white toes




Folks,

  I now have an apartment - in the posh area of Devils Peak, just
  below a hill of the same name. I share with a white lady who works
  for a WWW publishing company.
  
  It is a fairly small apartment, with stunning views of Cape Town,
  and somewhat primitive plumbing. It is half an hours walk from town,
  handy, as I have yet to buy a vehicle.
  
  You may have notice the Rand plunge nearly 10% in value in the last
  week - currency speculators who think the Rand will devalue like
  the Eastern economies. It appears to be holding at that level though.
  
  As a consequence, I would prefer to keep my dollars as dollars, and
  borrow from the bank to buy a bike. Prime rate here is now 26%.
  
  Near my apartment I am happy to find a really great local (white,
  primarily) bar called The Shack - fine music, indifferent beer, and
  good clientele. Well, cannot win them all ..
  
  At work I a busy tidying up these folks network security, and
  installing administration software, and in the process getting
  familiar with the various systems the company maintains for
  Vodacom. We have finally agreed of the text for the employment
  contract I have to sign, so hopefully I will soon be able to
  persuade the bank to lend me money ..
  
  Oh - naked white toes ??  Major shock value here - I now wear socks.
  
  Happy 4th July ..
  
Cheers,      Andy!
