It is a blogging shame, but its been more than two years since I last did something here. And what a time it has been. Francois Viljoen made me think of starting to blog again. Perhaps I'll try to keep them short, this way I'll find more time to do it. I do also post quite a bit on my Facebook profile, but access is of course limited.
So what happened in the meanwhile. Firstly I got permanently employed. And what a pleasant experience, especially considering that I was fairly successfull working for myself. It was surprising to find a work environment that allowed growth as this one.
I also spend 6 months in Lagos, Nigeria with my wife and children. What an experience! Although I felt much safer there than in South Africa (really!), it was probably the most difficult time of my life. I learnt quite a lot about African politics and how bussiness is done in Africa, especially in Nigeria. It was a very educating time for the whole family. We now appreciate South Africa just that much more.
Even Nairobi, Kenya seemed so much better now than two years ago. I suspect that both Nairobi as well as myself has changed in the last two years. The biggest change in me was probably because of the 6 months in Lagos.
Will be back soon.
In the meanwhile, how old do you believe the Earth to be? Thousands of years old or Billions of years old?

Hey Danie!
Ek sien nou eers hier hierdie inskrywing.
Weet wat jy se^ van voltyds werk - ek blog ook nou baie minder.
Wel, sien uit om jou gedagtes te leer.
Groete daar vir die ander x-Lagos maters, vroulief en kinders.
Francois
Ja-nee, tyd vlieg. Ek het kom baie min by hierdie blog uit. Ek is baie meer verbaal op wword.blogspot.com en dan natuurlik op Facebook.
