GO BAFANA GO!

Now that the pain has subsided and I am actually able to speak again, let alone walk, I have a very large bone to pick with my hot physio! WTF were you thinking putting me on that wretched machine. Seriously, when I asked if this would make me stiff and you said maybe, what you should have said was: “No, not stiff, agonizingly painful to such an extent that your body will immediately age 50 years, you will lose the ability to walk let alone walk up and down stairs and all words that exit your mouth will be of the profane variety!”. Nobody is hot enough to get away with this and when I see him again tomorrow for my third and what is known as “getting used to” session there will be words!

On a lighter note and a subject I have not really touched on since the whole process started, The World Cup. Although I have not watched any games save for the opening game where we did out damdest against Mexico, I am very proud to be South African at the moment. The general vibe and gees around Johannesburg and Cape Town is amazing let alone the copious numbers of seriously friendly (and often rather cute) foreigners! Barring the very unusual traffic jams in Cape Town, I have not heard a bad thing said about us as a host country and I challenge anyone to try!

I believe Bafana Bafana are playing today and we need something short of a miracle to get through into the second round. This said, miracles have been known to happen and all I can say is “GO BAFANA GO!” Blow those Vuvuzelo’s Peeps, feel it, it is here!
