Lucy and I had an absoute ball together in Cape Town in January (some pix on the blog: http://bishopalan.blogspot.com/search/label/Cape%20Town). We met many warm, friendly and inspiring people, and much enjoyed the beauty and foody heaven aspects of the place. Costs were really low — we did the lot for 500 quid. We had a couple of interesting street encounters with troubled people, but nothing more than could easily have happened in London and we do tend to walk in a place to get the feel of it. We were told there's more of a problem in other parts of SA, and I don't want to deny something that is an issue, but we felt no more unsafe than on the streets of London, Chicago, or New York. We loved it, and if it were nearer, or Richard Branson would like to give us a few more free air tickets, we'd be back like a shot...Bishop Alan Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13879516755776951638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19384577.post-66582383628707356602010-03-03T13:00:30.741+02:002010-03-03T13:00:30.741+02:00It is the Daily Mail, "if it bleeds it leads&...It is the Daily Mail, "if it bleeds it leads" takes on a whole new meaning there. Especially if it can be linked to football. They did the same team when the Togo football team was attacked in Angola/Congo. Even though the attack took place thousands of kms away (further than Moscow is from London from what I understand) it still was linked with the upcoming World Cup.Shanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07529417541951066343noreply@blogger.com
