    We live in a beautiful country! Just to say that I’ve enjoyed this week’s topic – whether you like it or not!

    Great! We are doing a great job as the country. Its just a pity that not every South African wants to see and preach it that way. We are a great organisation with dedicated employees.

    To give reportage of SA weather conditions :

    We weather the horrific Cape storms, withstand the drubbing humidity of Durban, dish out the arid and dry conditions of Kalahari, warn of Highveld heat wave spurts,and the engulfing cold winter conditions with the precision of a laser beam’s incisive penetrative cure, all in a mere day’s forecast.
