    yes, unless i am mistaken, John Surtees and Mike Hailwood both moved from 2 to 4 wheels with considerable success, although Surtees is the only world champ to date in both codes. can you imagine guys from that era rocking up at a presser and tjooning they're vegan... HAHA...

    he wont, plain and simple. not having a go at you, not in the least. but if i had to choose between driving over Zupta or LH44, I would probably drive over LH44 twice.

    the term LEGEND gets thrown around very quickly nowadays. this is a legend: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Surtees this is not: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_Hamilton
  8. yes, it is the unknown that messes with everything up. you have a great NY resolution: get the divorce finalised in the first quarter!
  9. hang in there buddie, myself and most dudes/dudettes here share your pain! cool that you found someone else to take matters further and try and get it sorted. its amazing that some people enjoy dragging such an unfortunate event in life out as much as possible, when it can be done and dusted in as short a time as 2 months (mine was). press your lawyer, dont let up, and make sure you send all instructions via email, for your own record keeping. some divorce lawyers will stretch this procedure out as much as possible for their own financial gain, I think thats what happened with your first lawyer. if it was me I would consider reporting her, there has to be an avenue to do so if you can prove she was not following your instructions - this would piss me off as well. all you want to do when arriving at that point in life where divorce is the only option going forward, is to have the process run its course in a short a time as possible and with as little financial and emotional damage as possible. sadly that doesn't always happen, and that is where you are tested as an individual. I certainly went there, into the darkness... you feel embarrassed, angry, sad, disappointed and at the end relief. You will know who/what your support structure is, and make use of it. If you can manage to make peace with yourself when all is said and done, you will come out a better person, trust me. Strongs buddie, if it helps, I celebrated 6 years of being a divorcee on December 6th. I've never been happier - apart from work stress, which is usual being in the construction environment! Not having to answer to someone is bliss. Not having to constantly explain why this and why that, is peacefull. I don't miss that part. If I feel the need for human conversation, I go on a ride with my buddies. And because I've stopped being bitter about life, people invite you over more often because you dont carry that negativity on your face. In the end, just keep 'riding'. For your own sake. Peace.
  10. I agree. I dont understand how the entire board escaped unscathed though. At least we will see Biff in the role of DoC, which is a step in the right direction in my view.
  11. tata Thabang... Suspended with immediate effect. With pay of course.
  12. and there it is, Standard Bank just announced that it won't be renewing its sponsorship of the men's Proteas Team. " Cape Town - Cricket South Africa (CSA) has received a financial blow with the news that Standard Bank - title sponsors of the men's national Test and ODI side - will not renew their deal with the organisation when it expires at the end of April next year. In a statement released on Friday, Standard Bank confirmed the news. "This morning Standard Bank informed Cricket South Africa (CSA) that it will not renew its agreement as the title sponsor of the South African National Men’s Cricket Team when it concludes on 30 April 2020," the statement read. "Standard Bank has sponsored the National Cricket Team, and the CSA development programme through the Regional Performance Centres, for a long period. We are immensely proud of the many milestones reached." Standard Bank Group Chief Marketing and Communications Officer, Thulani Sibeko, said the decision not to renew the sponsorship agreement was not taken lightly. "Standard Bank is committed to upholding the highest levels of leadership, integrity and governance. In light of recent developments at CSA, which are a culmination of long standing problems which have damaged Standard Bank’s reputation, it has decided not to renew its partnership with CSA," he said. "We wish the national cricket team well in the years ahead. The Test, ODI and T20 teams have made South Africans immensely proud over the years and we are grateful to have been a part of their journey." The statement added: "Cricket is a national asset valued by millions of South Africans, many of them our clients, and is an integral part of the bank’s heritage. "Standard Bank considers it appropriate and fair to give CSA adequate notice so that it may explore alternative sponsorships to replace Standard Bank." This comes at a time where CSA CEO Thabang Moroe and his leadership have come in for heavy criticism following what has been a disastrous few days for the organisation. "
  13. more CSA officials suspended. **** me this is getting ridiculous... I hope this CSA board gets dissolved at this emergency meeting tomorrow, what with 4 provincial unions having weighed in on the situation, sponsors complaining due to lack of proper management, Ali Bacher having weighed in etc etc... I had to laugh after reading the article where Ali states "I don't dislike Thabang, we get along swimmingly, but he needs to step down, he is incompetent..." - HAHA, I couldn't agree more Doc!
  14. Still happily single! The only stress I have in life is which parts I want to buy next or what bike I want to buy next... Oh, and the small matter of my one rottie nearing the end of her life span with cancer helping to speed it up. Otherwise, I'm happy as a pig in excrement. I vote for the SA bank account option. It shouldn't be your problem how the money reaches her wallet. But at the end of the day it all comes down to what was agreed to, that's pretty much where one has to make sure you negotiate properly. I worked with a guy who was getting paid in ZARS, was living in Nairobi and was paying his ex living in London. Needless to say he got shagged properly by all the exchange rates - iirc his agreement with his ex was for a set amount of pounds sterling... which you can imagine must be a real pain in the hind quarters. Properly negotiating at settlement is just so important, and that's where a decent attorney is worth their weight in gold I reckon.
  15. get in touch with Louw Inc. in Somerset West. or there's always Werner Bock, I hear he is a real terrier...
  16. Thabang Moroe’s CV. I guess this is a prime example of when you employ someone for other reasons than being qualified. CSA is falling apart thanks to this idiot. Well done BEE... well done...
  17. All good brother.
