Here’s a brief glimpse of what it’s like trying to communicate with the South African Government. I’ve spent hours on the phone waiting for the Department of Home Affairs to just ANSWER THE PHONE!! “Batho Pele” my ass.

    Willie, well said! I’ve experienced exactly the same problem some time ago. NOBODY answers the freaking phone!!! Luckily we are in George and went over there ourselves and of course when you ask why they don’t answer the phone, the answer is very quick, “it’s not my phone that’s ringing”!!

    Okay my friend. I love this freaking post….and I’m not sure whether it’s because of 1: the concept (which is brilliant), 2: the humor of it all (I laughed out loud), 3: Seeing you ‘in action’ or finally 4: Hearing your UHHHMAZING ACCENT…….lol….yes as gay as it sounds….I’m going with number 4! GREAT POST! Thank you!
