I had a great afternoon. Had to go to 9 SA Infantry battalion, which isn't far from Strand, so I decided to pop into Hugo van Rooyen's Sportz Pub. Finished all their Hansa Tafels, and had a great chat with some old OMD'ers. Really enjoyed the chat with "Stokkies" (Anton) van Schoor. Oranjemunders are everywhere, and somehow there just seems to be this something special between us - what is in that town that bonds us like this? idontknow but it's wonderful!
Hi Bertie
Please let me know where the pub is as I am coming over in about 2 months and will be looking up some ex-Oranjemunders that now stay in the Strand and Somerst West. Would be good to look up others as well . . .

Malcolm, I PM'ed you the info. They are planning another get-together in the next few months, Hugo's thinking about a spit-braai.
Hugo Where I go....! Hugo Boss..... The GM in exile.... Thats our Hugo...... If any of you are in the Strand / Somerset West area...... and enjoy an awesome Eisbein.... then make a turn up to the Helderbrau Brewery, off the N2 by furlongs/ Monkey Town....

Mike, have you forgotten how much your Mother in law enjoys Eisbein. Don't forget, this place is just around the corner from us.
To the rest of you guys, please include Gordon's Bay, there are now ex O'munders living there as well beermug 20
