Hey there

Can you believe that we're done with November already geezzz I havent even started Christmas shopping yet. To be quite honest i'm really scared to hit the malls. The crowds, the noise, the lines, great idea to go fully protected with arm shield, knee pads & helmet!

Lets prepare this year... make your list, go to the mall, go for lunch, look at the decor, listen to the music & make a day of it... make a memory. Hah would luuvvv to be a fly on the wall to see that go down!

So what's happening in the news Ms harpo herself calling it quits after 25yrs, wonder if old Felicia Mabuza will be making a come back?! Really wont be surprised, gosh even Onder Engele is back on the tele WHAT THE HELL IS SABC DOING?? Sorry didn't mean to get you started. & What's up with Ufo's in Jozi?, goodness talk about extreme, next you'll find HOT, SEXY soccer players walking around S.A., oh wait, hold-up, that’s a given!

As promised, below please find some special people in our world who could do with our donation...

While we're here, lets do what we can...

I thought it’d be a great idea to look a little deeper into the real reason for our Xmas party this year. Many of us are clueless about the help needed out there so I decided to do some digging & present them to you one by one.
