This blog turned 19 and I didn’t notice
I was scrolling through notifications in the WordPress.com app this morning, and noticed that I had hit a milestone. I have been on WordPress.com for 17 years. To add to that, I have had this site in its various incarnations for just over 19 years. My first post on this site was published on 6…

Its been a year already
Its been a year since my brother-in-law, Cliff Hoffmann, passed away. Its fitting that today is such a sombre day here in Johannesburg. I took the photo below at a lunch at Gina’s late grandmother, Granny Ruby, on the 2nd of January 2011. I remember that day being a pretty good day. We were visiting…
