Makes me sick, my home town
This is why I either never comment or give my opinion when the UK is put down or complained about. As somebody who has come from "the other side of the tracks" I know how good it is here in many aspects. I fear daily for my family who still live in Durban and my nephews are are growing up there.
Today’s news from my home town Durban,

rant over, proud (and happy) to be in the UK.

it’s extremely sad to see it going the way it has. looking at my dads old photo’s from Kenya and SA from the 50’s and before independence, they were beautiful places, now it’s all bloody tribal feuds again. they’ll never ever have peace in africa i’m afraid, life is just tooo cheap out there.
