November 15th, 2005

17:03 Stuck in cataclysmic traffic jam next to a black BMW with Christina Aguilera in the back seat.
19:25 First time I set foot in Firkin Pub.
19:35 Last time I set foot in Firkin Pub.
19:58 First time I ever ride on a speed bike.
19:59 Travel down the N1 on the back of a Kawasaki Ninja at 232km/h.
20:00 Nearly crap myself.
20:02 Get off the Ninja and vow never to get back on again!
20:34 Play Jurassic Park Arcade game from start to finish resulting in a blister on my trigger finger.
21:59 Stuck in a mob of hair, cleavage and spandex at Rhapsody’s in an attempt to get a beer at the bar. Coincidentally Megan McKenzie is right next to me trying to get a drink as well.
22:12 I think Megan is staring at me.
22:13 No! She’s staring at my friend Jaco!
22:14 Get real, it’s only the beer talking.
23:55 I’m off to bed. Two celebrity sightings in one day, not bad!

    What happended between 19:35 & 19:58… Does Christina like South Africa so far?

    The time between 19:35 and 19:58 was spent recovering from the horific sights and sounds we had to endure in Firkin Pub. All I can say is that if you ever find yourself at a “Clint & Co.” performance, get as far away as quick as possible before Clint starts singing his no. 1 hit… Sout Piele!

    Yup, jy’s reg Nats, dit was die 11de. Ek onthou dit nog soos gister.

    We were travelling so fast on Emile’s speed bike that we “time warped” back in time and Friday the 11th became Friday the 10th… But I’ll fix it for the people still stuck in “normal time”.

    Update: It seemse Jaco is still suffering severely from the Megan McKenzie Syndrome! His condition has been worsening at a steady pace the last couple of weeks and doctor’s say permanent damage is inevitable.
