It always amazes me that after getting on their high horse for a while, how silent these proclaimers become! I think that maybe TheLastBaron has realised that there just may be an inkling of truth in some of these posts!

You are probably right, but then sometimes the truth hurts! The great thing about these forums is that you can take all the views expressed, water them down, shake them up and make up your own mind on things. I guess that none of us are pretending to be the absolute expert in any area, but we each have experiences that are worth sharing. How they are interpreted and used is up to the reader!

Considering the last barons insults and attitudes I've highlighted from his first to 4th Posts, I think he got off very lightly.
I sincerely hope that SA teaches him some humility.

That's funny Daxk! We can attribute many fine qualities to South Africans, but humility's not a well practised one!
How long've you been out of SA?

Ever wondered why this particular SA forum is so lonely....?

Give up Baron!
Come to SA...the vociferous vitriolic vector are not representative of the South African population.
They've been at it for ever and cannot be moved

Gee Klebe, I got my family out 4 years ago, I was last physically there 3 years ago,
I spoke to my Office this afternoon, Pity about the Manager at that little pub in Fourways from last week,
Sa is a paradise, but there are also some serpents, it is in the time after I left that Fred Picton-Turberville ,who had taken his family back to Paradise from the UK, had a bad day.
For those who have'nt been to SA ,Carte Blanche is an actuality TV program and this was their report on SA TV.


Klebe, would you mind telling me which part of this actuality report, which reflects one of the half a million Home Invasions in SA during the past 4 years is the Vitriolic invective of which you speak.
