Zimbabwe

[J Canuck]

I felt I had to relocate before I was accused of highjacking the original thread.

It sounds like I may be able to say thank God you are not a farmer, and trust you can stay safe. I understand the magnificent beauty of Zimbabwe along with deep roots are the big reasons why many are toughing it out. I have a first cousin somewhere in Zimbabwe. She visited during the seventies, fell in love with the land and stayed to devote her life to the care and preservation of the wildlife. Occasionally we get a flurry of political press about Zimbabwe - hopefully time is running out real fast for you know who.

I guess you get the same problem sometimes when people think you are American !!

Many feel we sound the same. Too bad we lost the King’s English; however, they will have to pry my pen from my cold dead hand before I change my written s to a z (ise/ize)! Just to illustrate the cultural pressures we Americans endure in NORTH America. Enough rambling before I’m accused of self-pity.

Sorry mate, you got the wrong flag. I said Southern Africa not South Africa. I tend to say this because a large proportion of the world's population haven't a clue where Zimbabwe is.

Hope I have it right this time.
