| Steve,Come to SA - we have quite a few public holidays, we don't have coronation street, but if you are a footy fan - we have every single premiership game of the season (Most of them live) and most are replayed as well - we have a 24 hour footy channel, my mates from here that are working over there are quite upset that we get better coverage of their games Duane.

| Well Wiffy is a footy fan that will probably make up for the lack of Coronation Street. I'll have to speak to her. Isn't the climate in SA similar to Britain? Does it get grey and soggy there too?steve-----------Facts are meaningless. You could use facts to prove anything that's even remotely true! |

| mmmm... sa climate - nah! - It's fantastic - you must know some South Africans over there - You guys get invaded by us and other Southern hemisphere people from Aus and new Zealand - cos of your strong currency - ask them.I live in Durban which is Sub-Tropical with a warm Ocean Current - we swim all year round and I only wear a jersy about 3 days of the year (which is in our Winter around July).Plus we are looking at beefing up our SQL side over here as it is. We are actually gonna be interviewing a guy today.Duane. "It's a thankless job, but I've got a lot of Karma to burn off." |

| Having just come back from a couple of weeks in the carribean I must admit I'm tempted. Landing in Heathrow to find it grey and cold, then Manchester to find it grey, cold and wet was quite dishearteningsteve-----------Facts are meaningless.
