It is Sunday evening and we are back home from a lovely lunch with Neurens Aunt at her place in Henry on Klip, outside Johannesburg. As always the food was perfect and her place green and full of dogs (we counted ten today but I am never sure of many they actually are! Troye and Squeeky came with are now they are sleeping heavily after a full day of dogs (think Squeeky is just relieved to be back home). Yesterday morning we spent running errands and then spent the afternoon lazying in front of the TV. Normally we do work at home (on the house), but sometimes it is just nice to relax and do nothing, which is something that happens to seldom. Before sunset we did get some plants in to the ground that has been waiting since May(!) in their pots.
I have done my first week at work and yeah, it still looks very interesting. As a new comer it is a lot to read (policies, legislation, procedures etc) and more will come these following three months before I take my exam and becomes a qualified inspector. By next week I should get my uniform (hehe first time ever to wear a job uniform) and start going out to the field a bit more together with other colleagues (whom all seems very cool I must say). So for now I do not have much to tell. As for Neuren he is working hard at the moment; the boss is away and he is now in charge of the curtain factory as well as selling the jobs. Suppose it would have been easier if the boss had left papers and jobs to be done in order but not really.. Anyway he is managing it despite the challenge and I am proud of him 
So the Olympics have started but we do not have satellite TV so we actually have no clue on how South Africa or Sweden is doing, unfortunately.. On the news is also the talks in Zimbabwe between Mugabe and MDC. Sounds today like they are close to a solution, on how to make a “power sharing” solution. Yepp, it is one step in the right direction but I do wonder how they will actually work together after this. It is one thing to agree on a power set up, but will they manage to lead the country into something better? A dictator who has been killing people of the opposition and calling them all sorts of names, will he accept working together with those people he hates? Interesting times ahead. Here in South Africa the farce about Zumas trial continues. A man who claims he is innocent saying “I will have my day in court” is surely making his best to stay out of court or stop evidence for being used. A short while ago the talk was to postpone the court date to after next years elections (where everybody think Zuma will be president) and now their is an suggestion to make presidents of the country immune for charges etc. Wow…some things never ends to amaze me. Luckily this is not Zimbabwe and we do have a legal system that seems to be working so I so believe that Zuma will go to court before elections and that he will be convicted should he be guilty. I do not want to believe that he and his followers (whom are plenty) will manage to threat or cheat them out if this.
Ok time to get dinner going and then prepair for a new week.
Tjing!
