Hi Debbie,
I'm living in Greenpoint just behind Giovannis, do you know it?
Came over here two weeks ago working and might not go back at the way this is going, I love it here!
How are you and your fiance finding it?

Re: Anyone in Cape Town?
I don't know that way too well, i know of Greenpoint but thats about it!!
Thats kind of what happened to me, i was only suppose to be in S.a for two months but i'm still here three years later. My fiance is south african. It is great here, i cant complain, i live in a beautiful flat opposite the beach!!
So what kind of work are you doing? did you come over on your own?
If you need ideas on places to visit then just ask, my fiance knows loads of good places.

Re: Anyone in Cape Town?
its a plant and tool hire company...very boring!!
its ok here, camps bay is lovely you must come my way around the coast, around to bettys bay, pringle bay, kleinmond, hermanus, its really beautiful and a nice drive.
Erm as for being dangerous, every country has their dangerous places which you dont go to, same in England! Dont go into the townships, which is pretty obvious. where we live we have had our clothes stolen off the washing line, attempted break in, and they broke into our canopy, so it does happen and you do have to watch yourself. I won't take a taxi over here or the train, they say that is a bit crazy.
anyway, i better get on with some work, financial year end so lots to do. I see your on msn so maybe i'll chat to you on there if i see ya.
