Geelong, Australia
HI All When you own your own company, you rarely take a true vacation; it is normally just a Working Holiday. I have, however, often been referred to as a fitness fanatic: I don’t spend my holidays lazing on the beach; I prefer to challenge my physical limits by entering an energetic sporting event Over […]
Breakfast at the Radisson
HI All The flight back from Sydney to Johannesburg on Qantas is a long but very comfortable journey flying into strong winds for up to 14 hours. On occasions in the past, we have gone as far south as the Antarctic to help the pilot reduce the effect of the Westerly winds. NB the Eastward […]
Salmon and Recommended Reading
HI All To have the most benefit out of a game of golf requires a good 7 hours of the day – driving to and from the golf club; playing 18 holes; a shower afterwards; followed by a few drinks with your playing 4 ball. I, therefore, try to ensure that I do not have […]

It takes determination and true dedication to reach that stage where you are “talking” fit – that place where you can have an intellectual chat with similarly fit running mates […]
Softrite Farm Wages
Hi All Farming, here in Zimbabwe, is generally labour intensive with eager workers requiring skilful management backed up with an organised administration setup. Generally, when a farmer starts out, he just takes on a few locally based labourers to plough and plant the fields. He then sits down by his computer, at the end of […]
Small Bridge Triathlon
Hi All I’ve just returned from competing in the annual Small Bridge Triathlon. Small Bridge is a large lake situated at the start of the Eastern Highlands some 40km north of Mutare. This short drive takes one along steep, winding roads with good tar to an elevation of 1551 m – 330m above that of […]
