Interesting story KonaFan - I'm in a  lift with a fellow Souf Effrican in Dubai, we want to make a comment about a meeting we just came out of but don't want the okes with the tea towels and soap on a rope to know. So we rattle off in Afrikaans, next thing an oldish gent who got in after us (luckily not from the same company!) says - 'omtrent tyd dat die Bokke 'n slag wen!' (Transl. our rugby team are useless, accurate? at least at the time anyway!)

 

Good laugh had all round!!!!!!
