Monday, April 13, 2009LAST MINUTE STUFFJust a quick one before I clear off again........................Hubs will hopefully be on his way home from work within the hour & then there'll be a mad rush to find a legit parking spot, in which to park our motor for the next 10 days. As you can see by this photo, people aren't taught to read in this place until they're about 75yrs old, because there are distinct & very clear signs posted outside this establishment, which state: NO PARKING. These drivers fall into 2 brackets - the "I'll only be a moment, so I'll park here" & the "How dare they put a sign up saying No Parking? Don't they know who I am?". The jumbled parking lot outside our apartment block has car owners getting nailed regularly by the traffic police - quite rightly so. Idiots park on corners, in the middle of the road, in the middle of a throughfare, they double park & they triple park. I smacked a vehicle not so long ago, because he'd blocked me in. He was parked illegally so he must suffer the consequences. Tuff tits, check the worry in my eyes. So, insh'allah, the owner of the above handsome beast will have removed it in time for hubby needing to park & the problem will be solved! Next up, we shall await the arrival of the car which is due to take us to the airport & which is all part & parcel of Etihad's Business Class service. If it's anything like the past coupla trips we've had, I'll be turning the air blue with some choice swear words. When one gives ones address to the lovely people at Etihad (in order to be collected) one does not expect the driver to a) not understand English & b) go to a totally different address & then complain that we're not there. Hmmmmm............wish me luck! We have a coupla hours to hang around in Oliver Tampon Airport (Joburg) before catching the connection to East London, so plenty of time to nicotene load, before taking off on the national airline, which has recently hit the headlines for a different interpretation of 'flying high'. Perhaps we'll even have chance to browse the internet for a while. I'll be wondering what's gone wrong when I don't see this: Finally, we'll get to see Spadge, Shans & the one & only Chikkin! The sole reason for us going home is a wedding (blessing) ceremony. Although Spadge & Shans got married in Dublin almost 4yrs ago now, no family (from SA) or friends made it to wedding. So on Friday the 17th, Hubs & I will be going to a very special wedding. I can hardly wait! Right then, I'm outa here! I'll hopefully post a heap of photos in a coupla weeks time. Until the, be good you lot & as always, do it quietly..................... Labels: chronic parking shortage, Etihad limo service, Lilly Mai rocks
