    Its a lekker jorl, the Dubai sevens. Wish I was there again, especially as we have Engaland in our pool

    There are a zillion whiney, miserable expats floating around Dubai. I could think of nothing better than to sit and watch their faces whilst being creamed on the field by the Boks again

    The Fox is a major dump, probably coz it’s full of yarpies – ha ha.

    Saffa bar are all very macho. Walking up and down the bar carrying water melons under their armpits, despite the fact they have no lats.

    Oh well it is just a pub anyways!

Keo.co.za has always promoted uncensored views, but has never tolerated racist or crass outbursts. Come on guys and girls. If you can't moderate yourselves or each other then I am going to be forced to regulate the posts and enforce a registration process for comments. The choice is yours.
