Bassie Blasts False Weigh-Loss Ad

If you see a weight loss advert with my endorsement online, please do not use it.

I have supposedly lost dramatic weight using a certain product called Garcinia Cambogia.

In Memory of Youth Day 16 June 1976

June 16th is a Public Holiday in South Africa commemorating the start of the Soweto Riots of 1976, sparked off by a government edict that all instruction in black schools would be held in Afrikaans.

The above picture of Hector Pieterson, a black schoolchild shot by the police in Soweto near Johannesburg during a peaceful process march, brought home the horrific memories of the Apartheid regime to many people within and outside of South Africa.

IN HONOUR OF AN ICON ALBERTINA SISULU 1918-2011

Mama, you called for freedom of your people and were committed until the end.

Through your commitment to South Africa and our nation, you underwent years of mistreatment, heartache and suffering.

You faced police harassment, detentions, the imprisonment of your loving husband and the forced exile of your children.

Through all this, you still dedicated most of your life to the struggle for liberation in South Africa. You never gave up because you believed in freedom, peace and democracy.

Birthday Thanks

Thank you for remembering my special day and for all your good, warm and kind wishes I received.
Turning 37 is rather interesting. One is literally staring 40 in the face. When I was growing up, this was a "mature", "revered" and "grown up age"!!
