I flew back from Johannesburg to Cape Town on a BA flight yesterday afternoon after spending a week in Johannesburg. How do people stand that cold .. I will rather take the wet in Cape Town than that cold in Jhb .. I almost froze to death.
On to the ice cream. Instead of peanuts and whatnot, we got dished out icecream. You know those Magnum ice cream on a stick, only small versions of it. These ice creams were frozen rock solid and it was a laugh watching the people trying to eat these. Trying to bite pieces of was just impossible except for the chocolate coating on the outside. This was the first time that I was given ice cream on a flight and it was actually very nice. Just a pity it was such a small one. What I find interesting is that they serve ice cream in the midst of a cold winter and come summer these ice creams are nowhere to be seen. Will never understand that thinking.
Overall the flight was a very pleasant and fun flight .. very friendly lady between myself and Andre on the flight and was not offended by the jokes we cracked about the woman pilot. Yes, we had a woman pilot and obviously all the woman pilot jokes and comments came out. Must say that she, the woman pilot, was actually good. The landing was not to bumpy and she missed most of the air tirbulance.
I am just happy to be back home in good ol Cape Town .. Jhb really sucks.

Had dinner yesterday evening on the benches you see. Burger King burger and chips — and that cost 55 Danish Krone, about R72 .. yes you read correctly, R72 for a burger and chips.
While we are talking about my colleague, here is he (Andre) lying on his bed.
We have this joke about him staying in a real pimp room. I am staying in the new renovated part of the hotel where the rooms are ultra luxury. Last night while beer drinking from pub to pub we came across this traffic light —
The small green light on the right is a traffic light for bicycles. Yes, they have their own lanes with their own traffic lights.
When she was not dancing then she was standing dead still like a statue and would not move even if people tried to make her move. The moment some coins was thrown she started dancing with her flags.
