Ek het gou op 'n kaart gaan kyk. Ek was so naby aan Dunoon gewees toe ek in Mei daar was! Ons het een dag met 'n huur kar al die pad lanks Loch Lomond opgery, toe land Long Loch afgery, en toe by Dumbarton kasteel gestop. Pragtige area!
Ek sal graag soontoe trek!

So...konsalik...van waar is jy?
konsalik se dorpie het darem twee perde, en altwee lewe nog.

Die dorpie is een van die mooiste kusdorpies in Suid-Afrika - Mosselbaai

Very good! Hits that accent on the head, nê?
We watched some doccy on tv once, and the Americans could not understand a word the SEfrican who was being interviewed said! I had to translate. It was quite funny.
