At least we've survived JannieWorry month. This year, like last year, seems to have wings and fly. 2024's big story in South Africa is certainly the election, occupying our media and minds.

2023 will surely be remembered for the world cup we won. How wonderful it was - the excitement, the nerves, the coming together and finally winning the final. We will carry that with us for a long time.

It was evening, and it was morning – according to the story of creation. The seasons also feel a bit like that. One day it is still hot summer.

Wow, I don’t know if it’s just with the First Aid League, but this year has flown by like no other. We’re guessing it’s because the world is open post-Covid and everyone has been very busy… and aren’t we glad about that!
