Hannes

Welcome Hannes,

We've got a number of members who've had fishing experience in SA...including one long standing and respected fellow who lived over there for many years and I'm sure when he reads this thread he'll be most helpful.

I think if you click on photo albums there are some instructions re uploading piccies...if I remember you have to create your own album and then upload into that. I know I have to resize mine to a smaller format before uploading into my album.

[Graham Whatmore]

Or words to that effect :w

Do they really speak a language other than English in other countries? How would they know what each one is talking about? Yer need yer proper English doncha, stands to reason. Daft I call it.

 

[dezza]

The truth of the matter is that amongst most ordinary people of all races, better English is spoken in South Africa than is spoken in the United Kingdom.

For example I have a great deal of difficulty understanding the "English" spoken around Birmingham. Even worse is the "English" spoken by Glaswegians in Scotland, yet one has only to travel a few miles east of Glasgow and the Scots people often speak the most impeccable English

 

[Graham Whatmore]

Am yow saying us Brummies can't speak proper? We'em went to skool yer know Oi fink yow need yer ears seeing too.
