    Plans to expand the Gautrain to Soweto, Fourways, Mamelodi, and Lanseria

    100% . I actually considered using Gautrain but getting back and forth from stations to destinations + the cost of the trip itself (as @RaptorSA mentioned) made it unfeasible

    Plans to expand the Gautrain to Soweto, Fourways, Mamelodi, and Lanseria

    Agree. I can't wait to get back home where the most traffic I ever see is between the bedroom and the bathroom every morning. I honestly don't know how people do it

    Plans to expand the Gautrain to Soweto, Fourways, Mamelodi, and Lanseria

    I've been commuting on the bike between Joburg and PTA the last month or so and see the 4 or 5 coach gautrain shunting along it's tracks at a 100-and-plenty while 1000's of people sit in their cars in the parking lot that is the freeway. Panty should be finding out why this is the case first...

    Battling with Gout constantly

    "Quite". My sack! I've had attacks back in the day where I would rather have chopped off the affected digit/limb with a rusty axe than wait for the inflammation to subside

    Battling with Gout constantly

    You need a prescription, but it is well worth a visit to the quack. Even if you don't have medical aid , once prescribed the meds are pretty cheap. Mine is on chronic with Discovery but costs around 200rhondts for the generic for a month

    Battling with Gout constantly

    Puricos. Changed my life. I still get the odd "tweak" when I really overdo things, but sort it out easily with a dose or two of colchicine and laying off the rich food and dop a bit

    Maybe because they were specifically targeted by members of a "competing" religion

    The end of work-from-home in South Africa

    I think where people made these arrangements formal there is no issue. It is the case for me anyway although I do spend some time once a month in The Big Smoke doing f2f meetings and talking kuk at the water cooler. Productivity is zero for those few days but people seem to feel all warm and...

    The SA Politics Thread Part 8 - The Truly GNU Dawn, or is it?

    What utter kuk. Go do a bit of reading and you will find there have been literally thousands of "redistribution" transactions running into billions of rhondts.

    US Politics: Democracy Won

    I prefer my partners au naturale thankyou very much. Mileage on the chassis is part of who you are...why hide it? I'll admit here that I haven't tried very hard to spot augmentation on Melania, just at a glance I think she looks pretty damn good for her age

    Government can fix SA's road carnage... if it wanted to - Rob Handfield-Jones

    So much this :thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:. We have more than enough laws and rules... but they they are enforced so arbitrarily and unfairly that we may as well have none. "Road safety" is a revenue generator in ZA and nothing else
