Good day sir. How are you?
Ah the joys of "Teach yourself Zulu. Why the hell learn Zulu, you ask? Well, the area around Bulawayo they speak Ndebele (an offshoot of Zulu). They also speak english and truthfully, you can get by quite adequately with just communicating in english. My desire to learn the local language goes back to my school days where we were not required to learn the local African language and dialect. What a shame. It also is much better when you can communicate with the local people in their language. Even making a half arse attempt helps. Well, enough of the Zulu/Ndebele language rant.
Pretty calm couple of days. Lots of phone calls to make, chores to do and people to see. Still sorting out the "shitty" water problem at the house. It's not really shitty but there is some well contamination that we are still dealing with.
Football yesterday saw Man U beat Celtic 3-0. Anytime your team wins then it's a nice entertaining game. Monday night "Prison Break" and Tuesday night "House" wrapped up the TV session for those couple of days.
Chef Mike was at it again last night. Chicken picata with capers. Thank goodness no curry!!! He was assisted by Sous Chef Diana. What part did I play? Official food taster. I'm good at that. It was a very nice dinner.
Carpe Diem.
