Bafana Out But The Gees Remains

    What a proud moment yesterday watching Bafana Bafana take on the French!  Scoring three goals, one of which was outruled due to offside rule and Bongani Khumalo scoring in the first few minutes of the game.  They has so many great opportunities to score more and they played their hearts out.  Well done Boyz!  What a way to exit the World Cup - with a bang!

    I was beaming with pride and the excitment and tension was magical!

    My Boerewors and Megan won free tickets to the FanZone at Monte Casino to watch the game on the big screen.  They enjoyed live entertainment, dancers, singers and of course watching the game with thousands of other Bafana supporters. They said the atmosphere was electric - the constant drone of the vuvuzelas, whistles, singing, drums, chanting and singing Shosholoza.  Everyone was full of Gees (aka buzz).

    Will post some pictures of that soon.Source URL: https://geofflow.blogspot.com/search/label/bafana%20bafana

Youth Day in South Africa

    16 June was previously known as Soweto Day.

    In 1975 protests started in African schools after a directive from the previous Bantu Education Department that Afrikaans had to be used on an equal basis with English as a language of instruction in secondary schools.

    The issue however, was not so much the Afrikaans as the whole system of Bantu education which was characterised by separate schools and universities, poor facilities, overcrowded classrooms and inadequately trained teachers.

    On the 16th June in 1976, more than 20 000 pupils from Soweto began a protest march. In the wake of clashes with the police, and the violence that ensued during the next few weeks, approximately 700 hundred people, many of them youths, were killed and property destroyed.

    Youth Day commemorates these events.

    Anyhoo, enough of the South African history lesson and, more interestingly, this year on Youth Day our South African football boyz, Bafana Bafana, are playing in the 2010 Fifa Soccer World Cup.  Whoop!  Whoop! 

    They will be playing their second game of the cup and the entire country will be watched as they play Uruguay at Loftus Versfeld at 20:30.  So, out come the Vuvuzelas once again and our patriotic gear in order to support our team and scream at the telly.

    Now thats so Ayoba!  Click here to buy tickets and go experience the game live!

Blow Me!

    With only 2 days to go before 2010 Fifa World Cup Soccer kick off, today is the day that the entire country will come to a stand still at midday for five minutes in order to blow our Vuvuzelas in celebration.

    So, at noon, stop what you are doing, get your Vuvuzelas and blow on it like never before.  If you are in the car, hoot and let the sound be heard from Cape to Mpumalanga to Natal and from Natal to Limpopo!

    The Vuvuzela moment is here, let it be felt.

    This is our year to shine and shine we will.

    Viva of Bafana Bafana!Source URL: https://geofflow.blogspot.com/search/label/bafana%20bafana

Some Arb Pix from This Week

    We have been focusing on family and trying hard not to think about our horrid circumstances with my Boerewors' job on the line. It's hard but I have the most amazing little family.  I have a wonderful husband, two beautiful little girls who make me smile every single day and friends and family who really care. 

    Thank you for all your messages and prayers.  You have no idea what it means to me.  This weekend we will be chilling at home with my wee family and recharging my very flat battery.
