Hi all

22/10/06 Shanghai, China

Hi to all our friends and family test driving this site in response to our email. We do hope it works for you.

We have been toying with the idea of a blog for some time now, but never truly knew exactly how to go about getting it started. You know, being born a wee while short of the computerised generation and all that ...

Luckily we found this site, from initial info Jay's sis gave us regarding a lovely photo editing site. And yes, here we are. Two guys not really too sure about the intricacies of the Net, but we have found a way of doing it. Very easy.

The long and the short of it is .... if we could, you can.

Simply go for it. If you wanna write, if you wanna play, if you wanna publish photos, this is the place for it. Thus far we are impressed.

We really are not sure as to what is gonna come out'a this site / blog. Guess that, initially, it will be a random collection of thoughts and reflections, yet like all new borns, it will probably develop a character of its own in due course. We both love writing, as some of you'd know - and as some of you had come to fear, judging from the silence to most of our emails to you - but yes, guess it will simply evolve into an outlet for what we'd like to view as our respective creative beings.

Also not too sure as to which of one of us would be using this more frequently. At this stage my money is on Jay (me) as Mau has his own creative outlets. He loves the photo side of it, and I will take a wild guess by saying that most of the photies we publish on here will be from his fingers.

But we are not counting. As you should know by now, we are as good as one.

So, as an intro, this is our site. Come back frequently for we are quite typie ... and have lots to say.

Just a note to passers-by, happening upon this site by accident. The language and spelling used on here are S'African. It's simply another localised version of English, like Australian. Just looking at the two capital letters at the start of the name of this "new" language, should have warned you that it might be a wee different from the standards accepted by the Queen. Yet, like all languages over the ages, it is an evolving being. This S'Affie English too, is evolving here in the oven of Mother Africa, being baked, slowly and very, oh, so very gently.
