Until you need to mow all that lawn

My Uncle and Aunt had a plot in Benoni. They had a normal sized 4 bedroom house and then a few extra rooms and garages built in close vicinity to the house. Had a reasonable sized lawn and garden that they kept mowed etc, the rest was basically forest and veld. My uncle had his office in the middle of a plantation. They dug a massive hole, sealed it, filled with water and fish and put a wooden cabin on stilts up and that was his companies head office. You looked out from any window and  only saw trees and water. Most of his work is based in Durban by the harbor so he used to commute weekly and it eventually became unrealistic for them to stay here. They moved to zinkwazi and some developer bought their benoni house. Bashed it all down and put up a complex. I would love to go there now and see what they did with the "fish pond". They had a problem with rinkhals though, the dogs often got spat at. Luckily never got bitten and died.

Any reason why it states “Not for Persons Under the Age of 18”?

Ja I have no idea. Maybe by default all their ads just have it regardless of the alcohol content. Or maybe it's law that even zero% beer is not for under 18.

I think it's because the beer does contain a teeni tini bit of alcohol. It's less than 0.5% according to the label on the bottle. As far as I know a very simplistic explanation of how they make it is by continually changing out the yeasties before they make alcohol. So the sugar gets used up but very little (if any) alcohol is produced.

 

Bought some the other night. Tasty.
