    Cape Town would have to be one of the most beautiful citys in the world with Table Mountain rising to 1000 meters and those clouds forming a table cloth tumbling off that mountain.

    Bloody wonderful sight and its very surprising how much South Africa is like Australia.

    My lady friend own's a backpackers in Tamboorskloof and she's always trying to get me to go spend some serious time over there.

    Maybe when I retire in few years but the racial problems put me off a bit, not to mention the razor wire around every persons home , but she tells me its getting better .

    Lovely city all the same.

    ^Cape Town itself is now a shit-hole. 10 years ago, OK. Now the place is both the Gay capital of Africa and one of the worst crime spots to boot. Even the Mountain takes a 4 hour wait to get up the cable-car. Fuck it, I can walk up the thing faster.

    IMO, it's good for a quick day out, but make sure you are on the way home before sunset.

    South Afrca is fucked . Even the suply of electricity is not sporadic.

    Another fine country ruined by comunists with their false dogma of racial equality.

    My heart bleds for the poor sods who are white and born there---it is so hard for them to get out.

    My own son was born in the Uk but lived inSA for over twenty years untill them law required him to give pregerence to lazy uneducateed black people based on their skin colour rather that thier abilities.
    He sold up and returned to the UK where despite 3 generations of our family having both fought and been injured in the army of my country he was told he needed a work permit to get a job there!!!!

    I hate communism and I hate the PC brigade who seem to dominate western society.

    I love thailand because this is one of the few countries who have still got the balls to say that here the Thai come first and everyone else does not matter.
    I love here as a guest one year at a time and I respect that

    ^maybe not. Might be like 1,000s of other Rhodie's, born in Rhodesia but now live in Australia, NZ, the US or even the UK.

    100,000% inflation has that sort of effect on you.

    IMO, it's good for a quick day out, but make sure you are on the way home before sunset.


    When I was in Cape Town, I had the distinct feeling of being unsafe when I walked the streets especially because the blacks out number the whites six to one and they all seem to have there eyes on me.

    Ive walked the streets of Manhattan, ain't had that feeling and did not like it at all to feel unsafe like that.

    My friends business is surrounded by razor wire, she must hire 24 hour security guards to watch over the place 24/7 and even when we walked the streets normal houses had this sort of security.

    Fok that I say, after living in Aussie and Asia theres no foking way I can be in a place where I feel like this as theres simply no point to it.

    I was suppost to stay with her 3 months but done a bolt after 5 weeks as I could not wait to get back to Thailand and out of that bad vibe.

    But all said and done Cape Town is a stunning city as long as you don't get foking mugged.
