Camera With Stamina
Ordinarily, one doesn't expect something to work quite up to specification. However, my Leica camera, earlier this year, way out-performed its promise. Instead of taking "about 240" shots as promised in the manual, it took 640 -- and still had not quit, although it showed an exhausted battery. Most of the photos on this blog are taken with the Leica.

Attacked
One of our local "toughs" viciously attacked me in the street this morning, threatening to kill me, outside New York Bagels -- and in front of a law enforcement officer. I came off with a bit of a bruising -- he suffered facial injuries when the officer threw him into a signpost and put his boot on his neck. He's been put away for "riotous behaviour". OBSERVATION: He wanted money. I took out my wallet and said: "Look there's nothing in it." (Not the desired answer).

Pniel Congregational
This is the United Congregational Church in Pniel (pictured), about 40 minutes east of Cape Town (say some)! My wife and I had tea with the minister this morning, at a tranquil Church tea-room under the oaks. The Church owns the Main Road. I joked that they should put up toll gates. The Church was established in 1843.
