Today is the grand finale

Today was the last day of the world championship in beach volleyball in Stavanger...according to the FIVB the championship has been a huge success and luckily the weather did cooperate with us and the weather has been perfect during the entire championship. We would like to thank our sponsor Lani for giving us tickets to the grand finale...thank you very much.

Brazil vs. Germany

We are having a braai tonight

4.1 The Definition of The South African Braai...thanks Jocelyn

Two or more guys are having a good time, cooking food [15] on open coals or fire with the intention of consuming that food in the near future.
4.1.1 Please note that this definition is more specific than you might initially assume:
4.1.1.1 If you cook meat on a stove then you are not braaing.
4.1.1.2 If there are only women around the braai, then it is not a braai, it is called survival.
4.1.1.3 If you don’t plan to eat the food, then what are you doing?
4.1.1.4 If you are alone, then once again - Survival.
4.1.1.5 If you are not having a good time, then you are not a native South African and then whatever you are doing is not called a braai – it then becomes known as a barbeque.
