The weather is lekker warm here today, with those high thunderclouds everywhere, kinda like up country, I finish work in 40 minutes, so I think I'll go home and have a few beers and a nice little braai by myself..... I don't normally braai in the middle of the week, but....this weather cannot be wasted.....
Ek stem................ specially if it's about the beer drinking, you cannot let it go to waste!
You only get about 8 evenings a year like this,,,,, so why not..... i just must not get toooo pissed, I don;t think my better half approves of this mid week kuier sessions....

braai
It's almost 8.... and the coals look lekker, I've had 6 Tafel Lagers.... and I'm about to BBQ...... I bought some Garlic Pork neck steaks and pork fillet wrapped in Bacon..... Note the way I am trying to avoid the RED meat!
cookin
I see - the meat's not red and lucky for you, it's not mid-week anymore - passed that yesterday.
Oh, you like making people jealous - I'm logging off right now - going to go and grab a Windhoek just to spite you right back!
Toooooo Late Aunty, I'm way into the jealous mode.... I'm also braaing bacon bites.... the tafels finished.... I'm onto the WHK draughts in a can now, Just had a good chat through the hole in the fence with my brother, actually even managed to sell him a bottle of Merlot Wine for 40 bucks..... It's for his wife... I think he is hoping that he might get lucky 2nite..... but then again I'm just a humble retailer and that ain't my business
Anyone read in News24 today, that in order to but an average house in ZA, you need to earn 40 000 rand a month....? Are they mad?
Hopefully you will keep that shebeen stocked well for November during the reunion!
- And - you gonna be so green with envy should your bro tell you that he did score on the bottle of Merlot! :clean4:
Don't you mean ORANGE with envy sister? And needless to say, this entire town will be well stocked on that weekend with you lot hitting the place, I just need 5 of you to come "home" to make the weekend worth it!
ps... ek gaan nou braai, till later my cheetah cousin!
Quite rightly so ... house prices have indeed gone crazy .. to think that I bought the first house for R 26 000 in 83/84 the second one in 2000 for
R 200 000 the values of the terraced homes our area are now in the region of 850 K to 1 Mil now depending on condition for thos ethat did not get in some years ago it will now be exceedingly difficult .. even hearing of 2-4 people forming a partnership to at least buy a home , not make somebody rich by paying rent ,amd when it has appreciated sufficiently sell and hopefully the profit will give some leverage .. although now thiings are a bit static with the new credit act ... intersest rates going through the ceiling again and fuel also taking a jump ,, ther was an article in the papers saying that about 6,2 million in SA have been blacklisted so far and theres more on the radar screen as things begin to bite .. hopefully it will slow down property prices .. the only ones I pity then are the speculators that got in too llate and as some do have bonds to service ..
The housing market sucks... it's unfair and difficult for first time buyers to get in.... the only option is to build your own... I also feel that the Pam Golding's and the Seffs are helping to price houses way outta the reach of the average joe.... build your own house........
How's that Pork doing? Hope you have lashings of apple sauce to go with it...........
Nope... all the pork was made in marinade by a Cape Town company.... only the Pork Belly was doused with a good lashing of Ina Paarmans Braai spice....
Is it ready yet..............mind you don't burn the roof of your mouth when you bite into it.............Hey Mike, do you literly live next door to your kid brother?

Saw Mike hanging onto the bars outside the cinema, usualy he sits on the other side (while the spar trucks unload) but the sun was getting the better of him today he was in the shade. I think he's needs those BierSuip

Mike building isn't such a cheap option anymore. The stands have gone up and building materials too. Sometimes it is cheaper to buy than to build, if you can get a bargain.
