Gotta love you (Sweet Caroline LALALA) and leave you for a week.

Ladies and Gentleman

Finally I can say that one of my dreams are coming true. I can (almost) tick it off my bucket list! On Sunday I am leaving the farm for Cape Town and a date with the one, the only......

....

....

....

....



Yes, you guessed right. It is of course the one and only Neil Diamond.

My mother and I are going to his concert on Monday night. The Wonderbra G-string and 36B cup is packed and ready to throw at Mr Diamond. Just kidding.

And just in case you have no idea who Neil Diamond is (the horror!), I have included one of my favourite songs of ALL TIME!

Any case, also on leave next week, but I will announce the winner of the Kalahari.net voucher as soon as I am back from Cape Town. You still have time to enter!

Have a fabulous weekend!

P.S. For those who are questioning my love for Neil Diamond:
- Toddler: I grew up with his music. In fact, I think it is the very first song I can remember, playing in the background in 1979! 
- Teens:Sang his songs whilst on top of my double bed, using a bottle of Body Mist deodorant as a mic. (In 1995 my friend Eloise D joined in.)
- Adult: Still getting on top of tables when I hear his music!

But... Never ever will I sing his music on ANY type of karaoke night!

Today...

... I am so over our bitches being on heat since the 12th of March. First Katryn, now Bella. Bliksem and Vegter are fighting and howling like two wolves! Not getting any sleep. HELP!
... thank goodness, the farmer is in a better mood. He has been moaning and bitching this whole week.
... it's 4 sleeps until I leave for Cape Town. Neil Diamond on Monday night, yeah baby!!
... African routings are giving me a hard time. Hate quoting / booking Lusaka, Ndola, Kinshasa, Brazzaville and the likes.
... can not end soon enough. I am going to crack a Hunters Extreme as soon as the clock says 17h00.

 How is your week going?

Video: Tsunami dog reunited with owner.

"Stole" this video off one of @etiennebeneke 's tweets on Twitter.
{ I cannot imagine being separated from one of my dogs. This made me teary.}


I've been featured on Oh Darling Bride!

You'll probably ask why the feature on a wedding blog? Is she getting married? We have not seen anything about a wedding!

Yes, I am planning on getting married next year some time. If you want to read more about why I have not even started with the planning(apart from drooling over dresses), hop on over to Oh Darling Bride!

 Thank you Monique!

Bietjie humor vir Dinsdag!

Party dinge klink net so lekker in Afrikaans!

Unfortunately there is no way that this joke will sound as funny in English, but here goes:

Broccoli:      I am a broccoli, but I look just like a tree.
Walnut:        I am a walnut, but I look just like a brain.
Mushroom: I am a mushroom and I do not like this game at all!

Giant Pumpkin night

On Friday night Heidelberg had its Giant pumpkin competition. It was a first for us and I really thought our pumpkin was huge. Sadly, not huge enough, but what an awesome evening. Our largest pumpkin weighed in at 89kg and the winner weighed a whopping 283.5kg.

Next year we are going all out. The winner received a R3000 cheque...

Some of the entries

Uncle Doors won R500 for the ugliest pumpkin

89kg. Not bad.

The winner.
