This could be fun, I have always wondered how many Oranjemunders have retired or left and now stay in Table View and surrounding suburbs (every trip to Bayside I always seem to bump into somebody from O/mund)?
Hi Alfred,
After looking for my old O/M best friend ( from 40 years ago) I eventually found her in Table View, I went last year to meet up with her ( Nicolene barratt & Cousin Verona ) also just around that area there was john Van Der Hooven, Sandy Buchannon ( In woodstock) and Dyan young, Also Mrs Fields ( sharon and skylers mum) .
Now seems lots of people moved on to that area.......
Table View - you mean Boksburg by the Sea....... ;D
hey, hey kenny - careful there, you have a lot of us boksburgers to contend with ;D
i've also seen heather allen around the area (hubby was phil). bumped into dieter heiser in superspar, parklands. used to see charley blakemore a lot, haven't seen him for a while though.
Sam & Rene Seal own "The Edge" bar along Parklands main road - went there a couple of months ago one sat night to say hello but he wasn't there that night - only really comes in during the day to do the books, etc.
Heather Alan lives just around the corner from me in Plumstead.
I think it's her boyfriend who lives in the Table View area.
Hi Delia
Please could you say hello to Heather Allen when next you see her for me? Thank you
Tableview... My oldman's there, Cliff & Heather Jones, Bethkes to mention a few.
The retirement areas seem to be "seasonal". There was a time when hoards of OMders retired to Somerset West area, and again the Port Owen and Veldrif area.
Hi,
I left Omund in 1979, Debby in 1980 lived in Plumstead, married in 1982 moved to Table View in 1986 rented for a year, build a house in 1987 and have been in Flamingo Vlei, Table View for 20 years this year.
Do not down grade a ex Omunder now Capie ha! ha! (Boksburg by the sea?)

Hi all old Oranjemunders living in Table View. Maybe it is time we have a good old Oranjemund reunion at Chill Out (Sam & Rene's other pub - they sold the Edge). Anyone interrested let me know on my email address. Ronelle Van Rooyen (nee Groenewald)
Nice idea,will let you know soon.Where in Tab Le View is "Chill Out" I've not heard of it?
I'll be there- let me know when :)
Hi Delia, nice to know you are still around. Haven't seen you for some time. Seems we only bump into each other at Bayside. Will definately let you know about the reunion. That is if we get a big anough response.
Diane, Chill Out is in Parklands Main road, just a few meters from Sam's old pub "The Edge". It is in the same centre where Midas Spares are. Mabis Pub is upstairs and Chill Out downstairs in the right hand corner. It is a very small cozy pub. Hope you find your way there.
was'nt there a pub there called the Slug and lettuce?
???
Yes there was,many a 21st held there.
Boab and Alice Ferrie used to hang out there quite a bit.... so did John and Barbara Wallace, my dad bashed into them all there one day....
:D
Hi There. Slug and lettuce is at the Merlott Centre. Now called "On Time" Bar - part of the Spar Group @ Merlot Centre.
Hi Ronel - i made a point of looking out for Chill Out last night driving home along Parklands main road - knew i'd seen it somewhere along there - turns out it's right next to where my daughter does modelling at Figures - i'm not the most observant one around. So, know that i know exactly where it is - in fact i could walk (crawl) home from there it's so close - let me know, and i'll be there like a bear......
:birra2: Hi all Table View / Oranjemunders See my subject Oranjemund reunion 2008. Everyone interested please respond on that site. We are planning a huge bash depending on the response we are getting.
@ Ronelle, will try to be there but can't give a definite answer. Will be there if all is running smoothly on the farm.
