Hi! I'm new...

[Andrewette (Theron)]

Hi everyone, I've just discovered this site!  Awesome stuff!
Ek's 'n gebore Oranjemunder en was my hele laerskool loopbaan by OPS.  Barnato natuurlik!! Ek het my geboortedorp in 1980 verlaat, maar dink nog met baie heimwee en nostalgie terug aan die plek...
Nou ja, dit was 'n kort "introduction", ek het baie leeswerk om in te haal!!
Cheers!

    Baie welkom hier tussen ons klomp, Andrewette.  Hoop jy geniet dit gate uit hier en praat saam dat die spoeg spat.

[Donald Duck]

Andrewette,

If you cannot speak Scottish then beware.........

Oh well, I suppose I must be nice and welcome you........

Wecome Andrewette.

[Andrewette (Theron)]

Hey, thanx for the words of welcome!  So Afrikaans is forbidden? Was wondering were all the Afrikaans speaking people are...    

Okay, I'll try, but Kenny, changes are that your afrikaans is better than my english!!

I've been busy today, digging up all those old "kiekies".  Was quite an efford!  Now I must just find the right place to post them (I'm new, remember).  Try to find them if you can.. hiehie

Cheers

ons kan maar die Taal lees. Van die skryf is ek nie so seker nie.   

[Michele Alexander (Voden)]

Baie welkom Andrewette - met al die Iers, Skots en Duits wat heer gepraat word dink ek nie 'n bietjie Afrikaans 'n probleem sal wees nie! Ek is seker u gaan hope pret uit hierdie website kry, en sal sien u kan net nie wegbly nie!



En verskoon tog somige van die mense - hulle hak nou en dan uit, soos u seker al gesien het!

Ek se vir jou Michelle jy praat (skryf) sommer suiwer Afrikaans.   

[Michele Alexander (Voden)]

Ag, vreeslik dankie! Op hierdie stadium praat ek meer Afrikaans gedurende die dag as wat ek Engels praat! Om te skryf is 'n ander storie so I'm going to switch back to English - it takes much less thought! I love the Afrikaans language and find their expressions often a lot more applicable than English ones, sometimes I really battle if I'm telling my mom a story to find a suitable English word!

[Andrewette (Theron)]

Wow Michele! I'm impressed!!  

Gooi die taal!

Yep, this forum is kind of addictive, I must say!  All the memories...

[Michele Alexander (Voden)]

Addictive is the best description, you find you just have to log on to see what has been said and who is online. As I've said  in previous posts our telephone account has doubled in the last year but at least it is a form of entertainment!

(Don't tell Mike but we've even got our own free bar online as well - check out the topic Bot Squad - it's where we hang out of an evening, and some even during the day!, and the bar just seems to magically restock itself night after night - there's even a pole for  if you fancy a go!)

Yah!! I can understand again - Let me say a huge welcome to Andrewette...........stick with us and we'll show you around............
