Home

So there I am, well settled in my new home in Illovo.....

This is my front door... I'm standing in my lounge looking straight down the exit driveway, the main house is at the right and right down in all that white is the pool.

Honor, Donald (housekeepers) and their dog Sheba, having a Saturday morning swim. Directly behind them is my car port.

TJ 3353 - Just about to turn left into my car port - pool behind

Excuse the rubbish at bottom left, directly above the roof of my car is the main house, hardly visible because of all the greenery.

Diving board and my car at rear left...

Pretoria again... this time to see the Voortreker Monument. This is a shot of Pretoria from near the monument - see Union Buildings just to the left of the tree at right..??

VoortrekerHoogte and the monument...

That's better.... Union Buildings back right of the main city.

It was on a light fitting in my lounge.... but is it.....

a Praying or Preying Mantis...?

Off to the Lion Park..... and...

Isn't he just great??

And here are some of the LIONS!!

Shame about the fence in back.....

Already he's got bored!!

But - she's not!!

Oh yes she is..... and "What are you looking at??"

I'm looking over there.....

Well - I thought you were looking over here!

Just about this time I proposed marriage in a letter to Almuth - and she accepted. So then it was a mad rush to get a trip to Germany and the UK organised and ideally get married during that couple of weeks...
