don't joke like that. One of my friends had to get a visa so he was advised byt the Hunagrian cinsulate to come up himself and send his passport via courier. He is leaving SA on saturday and is currently stuck at van reenens because of snow.,
What I type has nothing to do with the people that employ me.

Ever head of the concept of alternative routes?
  • The R74 through Winterton, Bergville and up Oliviershoek Pass coming out 10km west of Harrismith on the N5 - but this route is probably snowed up too.
  • The N11 through Ladysmith, Newcastle and Volksrust before turning onto the R23 taking you through Standerton before reaching the N3 at Heidelburg. This is the route I took to Rage last year after Van Reenen's Pass was closed due to a tanker accident.
  • If all else fails, there is a very long way around. If you follow the N2 up the North Coast, it turns inland just before you get to the Swaziland border, and it eventually takes you to Ermelo. From there, you can take the N17 to Johannesburg. I must stress however that this is a VERY long way to get there. The N11/R23 route would probably be the best option.
EDIT: Besides, Van Reenen's Pass apparently got re-opened last night. :P

It took me 4 snaps to get it right, because my camera was messing around. With the last one I saw Ron quickly looking up while I was dashing to my room. Great success. :)

"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.
