Cape Town is celebrating Spring Day in a 16 year old fashion. It is raining, as it has been been raining on every single Spring day since 1994... :whistle: :whistle: :whistle:

Ek het 'n tradisie gehad wat ek so vir about 20 jaar gedoen het wat ek elke 1 September swem maak nie saak hoe die weer lyk nie.... gelukkig het ek eventually by gekom en doen ek dit nie meer vir die laaste 4 jaar nie :twisted: :twisted:
