A Handful of Keys

Last week I went to watch such a brilliant show! A Handful of Keys, which was showing at the Montecasino theatre.
It is a two-man, two grand piano show which includes brilliant musical performances by the two artists, comedy, fabulous costumes and a wide variety of music genres which are bound to appeal to most [...]

Best Mango Chicken Curry Recipe Ever

I was recently on a course where lunch was provided by the training centre. On one particular day the food was so good every single delegate on class went back for second and third helpings of this Mango Chicken Curry. I was certainly impressed with it, and the delegates couldn’t stop talking about how good [...]

Geocache Navigator by Trimble

I found this piece of software earlier on this year, and I now use my Nokia N95 with this software more than I use my handheld GPS.
The software is free to download, and only requires you to register on their website and link it to your geocache account. It is currently supported on BlackBerry and [...]

Geocaching

This sport/hobby is something that I bumped into my accident. I was downloading a software upgrade for my new Garmin 860 GPS, and I noticed on Garmin’s website, that my new GPS supported uploading of Geocache information. I spent a little bit of time looking into it, and then did some research at http://www.geocaching.com which [...]

GPS

Ok, so I admit it. I am a typical woman… don’t know where north is at the best of times and I am always getting lost…. NO MORE…. I have invested in a GPS and I am surprised that I ever survived without one in the past. This is not a toy. [...]

David Clark H20-10

About 6 years ago I bought myself a new headset for flying and I’ll never need another pair. I spent months looking at all the options, designs, cost etc on which headset would be the most comfortable, and the most practical.
Generally speaking, when flying small aircraft comfort is one of the biggest things to look [...]

Granny Mouse House

I recently did a trip down memorty lane with my sister to the Hogs Back. When I was younger, my grandfather owned a farm in Alice, Eastern Cape, and as children we would go up to the Hogsback for holidays.
This time I stayed in a bed and breakfast run by a really nice lady, Ingrid, [...]

Rent Scam

Have you unwittingly been involved in a scam or fraud? Did you get taken? I am writing articles on various scams and frauds so that the world at large gets to know about them and is more cautious when entering into a business or personal agreement.
Here’s one that happened to me!
I have a townhouse which [...]
