Thanks to a 60th birthday in Zimbabwe my uncle once again took to the skies and visited Sharon and I in Durban from the land down under. Unfortunately Sharon was unable to get leave on Friday so the day so it we couldn’t go away for the weekend. I climbed out of bed at the …
Another long weekend and another trip to the Berg to dominate some wild browns and rainbows. Sadly my last minute booking meant Kamberg was he only venue available and I was forced to head there for the umpteenth time, which isn’t really a bad thing. Friends of ours were staying at Giants Castle (yes, I was jealous) …
I was hugely excited about our 12 week scan of baby Prior. Why? Well mainly because we were hoping to see a semi-human looking baby instead of something that resembled the letter “Y”. That said I was certainly not prepared for what I saw. The below pictures don’t do justice to what we watched occur …
For my mom’s 60th birthday we put together a long weekend at Nselweni Bush Lodge with 13 of her closest friends and family. With the bush being her favourite place it made absolute sense that this was where she should celebrate this special event. At 4am on Friday morning Sharon and I picked up my …
Having found out Sharon was pregnant (so early) we rushed off for our first scan at the soonest possible moment, 7 weeks.

It’s not everyday that one returns home from a weekend of fly fishing only to be given life changing news. Yet that’s what happened to me when I walked through the door from a trip to the Underberg region. Sharon was looking a little nervous but I immediately put it down to the fact that …
After months of planning the big day finally arrived. As is tradition the groom is not allowed to see the bride the day before the wedding and so I headed over to Nick’s house to spend the night. Sharon meanwhile stayed at our house with her two bridesmaids. Donald joined Nick and I for my …
Sharon picked me up from the office at 4 and we headed straight for Underberg stopping only to grab some KFC for dinner. The weather was miserable with thick mist and heavy rain. Thankfully there wasn’t much traffic on the roads, especially after we’d passed through Hillcrest. That said, driving my ‘favourite’ road in the …
Firstly, let me admit to you that cruising was not my first choice of holiday. Being stuck in a floating food fest, with little space to move and the continual possibility of being made to laze by a pool, made me somewhat nervous. I love the outdoors and I want to be able to hike …
