On Monday, I was fortunate enough to be invited to a South African Development Community cocktail function held at South Africa House on Trafalgar Square. If you’re unawares, the Southern African Development Community comprises 13 Southern African countries, representing a population of 203 million people, and in 2003 a GDP of US$169 billion.

Anyways - yesterday, there was a pretty big fire that swept down Table Mountain and almost swallowed up our office….
Good thing we have backups, and webcams! […]
