New Mandela Bank Notes

Are you aware that South Africa launched new bank notes this week? On Tuesday, 06 November 2012 the new Mandela Bank Notes were released (Okay - its probably NOT called the Mandela Bank Note).

Crip new Mandela Bank Notes

I was quite surprised when I spotted it the first time - one customer used it in front of me on Tuesday, and immediately I thought of a counterfeit note - the note in question was a R100 note. I asked the shopkeeper if I could have a look at it - I think its the VIVID COLOURS used in the new notes. The old(er) notes were more subtle on the eyes (I think).

This morning I spoke to another shopkeeper - who informed me that the notes are quite similar to Zimbabwe's... He actually showed me a 100-note... colouring was quite similar... Let's hope with a World renowned Icon on the notes our's will have a better run (for the money)... LOL!

I'm lovin it!

LOL! A certain catch phrase some of you might know... 8-)

Yes, now that I'm back using public Transport - its like I'm

a whole new person! And I'm truly lovin' it!!!

MacDonalds - I'm lovin' it!

I've got EXTRA time on my hands (both in the mornings

and in the afternoons!). So much so that I'm contemplating

my routine... Actually, since I am not travelling in by car anymore,

I think that my routine has changed already! Eish!

Take for instance: I take an early train - similar to the time

I'd have left home - but get to Cape Town station well before

I normally would have been looking for a parking space.

SO... this morning I decided to treat myself to a 

MacDonalds Sausage Egg MacMuffin, with free cofee @ R14-95!

Now that's the life! And I still make it to work with time to spare!

Easy, relaxing, stress-free, no rush! AMEN to that!
