Disgusting service Mr Suit - N1

December 4, 2012
We phoned and made arrangements to try on suits at Mr Suit – NI City Branch for Saturday 
The 1st Dec. We were told it was too early for us to make appointments for a Wedding in March 2013. Its 4 months away and we need to plan and make sure the braids-maids and grooms men match. I dont see how its too early for that. They then said we could just pop in and take a look.

Upon arriving on Saturday morning, we were told that they were too busy to help us and that there were more pressing customers waiting for attention ?   We then said we did not mind
But had a wedding to plan for and so needed to decide on the colour of the mens suits.

We said we would look around the shop on our own.  We were then told in an aggressive manner that they could not allow self service.  So they were too busy to serve us, but we could not look or try on suits ourselves ?  So how would a client see how the style and colour looks on the person thats going to wear it, without trying on ?  Did they want us to just book a random suit in the hope that is was The right one ?
And all this after we had phoned them ?  

Needless to say we left the shop and went to Mr Suit in Table View................

So far they have been amazing, explained the rules and were happy to assist us. We will definitely be going back to them to make the bookings closer to the time.

To be continued ..............

126 ON MAIN

October 9, 2012
This week-end we stayed in a 2 bedroom cottage on the property of Tristan and Dorothy Hess
In Greyton.  




We have paid many visits to this beautiful town and know it very well.  We always stay on the Old side of Greyton and near to the Market area of the town.

This time we decided to stay on the complete opposite side,  close to the mountain and nature
Reserve as we were looking for some relaxing time to recharge our spirit.



We found the cottage to be so cute, extremely neat and clean and very home...

The Call of the Fish Eagle

September 17, 2012
Who can ignore the call of the Fish Eagle?  
This is a rarely seen and rarely heard eagle and at the Fish Eagle River Lodge in Hermon we got to 
Hear this amazing call of the wild and see the Fish Eagle perched in a tree above the River.



Steve and Kay Mapstone supplied all the details I needed and answered all my questions on email prior to our arrival.   I asked many questions and they patiently replied each time.
They welcomed us and showed us around and then left us in peace to continue enjoyi...

A beautiful wedding at Groenrivier Function Center

September 10, 2012
We were privileged enough to be invited to a beautiful Scottish inspired wedding at Groenrivier Function Center in Riebeeck Kastel.



The couple are dear friends of ours and sharing their special day with them at this quaint, country styled venue was amazing.  The venue its self is rustic and old, with lots of character. The views all around you of mountains, farms and animals cant be beat. The staff there did a fabulous job setting things up and making the place look exactly as her and her Mom ...

Cafe Felix :- Riebeeck Kasteel

September 6, 2012
We had booked to have lunch at Cafe Felix for  Saturday 1st September 2012.   Unfortunately 
The owner, Malcolm, had subsequently booked a wedding at the venue on the same day and could no longer accommodate us. Malcolm could not get hold of me – as I had not provided my cell number on the email.

We arrived unknowingly to be told they were unable to assist us and they apologised, the manager phoned and booked a table for us at Mama Cucina (Italian country kitchen)
And we received a complimenta...

The Happy Riebeeck Valley

September 6, 2012

We were priviledged to visit the Riebeeck Valley the weekend of the 1st September 2012.
I found the people of Riebeeck West, Riebeeck Kasteel and Hermon to be so friendly, so 
Genuine and so helpful.   

What a happy beautiful place.

Pay these lovely towns a visit and get to taste the delicious olives and the supreme wines, be surrounded by the beautiful mountains, rivers and farms and meet these warm, welcoming people.  We found the best jam at the Market on the Sunday morning at The Groenrivier ...

Vertical secrets, Pole dancing for fitness

August 27, 2012
We had the pleasure of being invited to a bacherlorette party at Vertical secrets in Blauwberg road, Table View.

The pole dancing studio itself is small, but very nicely done out with all the things you need at a dance studio. A nice little bathroom and kitchenette, little office, wooden floors, mirrors all round and of course lots of poles set up for dancing.

Juanita, the Vertical Secrets instructor, organised with the braidsmaids that we could all arrive at 6pm and enjoy some drinks and eats,...

Sure Travel arranged our flights with  :-  Kulula 
Kulula got it right on the way to Oliver Tambo – boarded without any problems and the flight...

GREEN FOR DANGER

July 24, 2012
Its not a case of Red for Danger – but Green for Danger !!!!!
If you are facing a Green traffic light – please be careful.
Please watch the person on the other side of the robot actually stops at the Red light.
I am sick of hearing how many people have been badly injured or killed due to people 
Going through the red robot.   The guilty parties are walking away and the innocent are
Loosing their lives.

I wish they would set up cameras at all intersections, and heavily punish these inconsiderate...
