So last night myself and my girlfriend went out to Yang Yangs for the all you can eat sushi for R99 at this Spar shopping centre, i parked the UTE under a tree and went inside, after about 30 minutes somebody came into the restuarant to ask the waiter if anybody is driving a black corsa bakkie right then i just felt my heart drop and my blood start boiling (i already had a very k@k day so couldnt deal with anymore) i took a sip of my brandy and walked outside. The car guard was standing at the entrance of the restuarant with tears in his eyes telling me how sorry he is, all i can think of was either they stole my system out the bakkie or they stole the bakkie, so i walk with him outside getting tracker ready on the phone, as we get out i see my bakkie still standing there and all my windows and doors intacked so i calmed down a bit and asked the dude whats the problem, he says to me...Eish you see this man was walking back to his car when he collapsed close to the bakkie so they all ran to help him and so while trying to pick him up and get him to the car his jacket hooked on my tail light and broke a piece of the cover off (my tail light was already broken and already ordered a new one) i just stood there and burst out laughing because the way he came inside to look for me i was sure i was going to not see my car standing outside, so i told him its fine not to worry about it because the light was already broken and i am getting a new one soon...still apologising he says he couldnt just leave it and not say anything and i really respect him for that not a lot of people would have done that so. i went inside to finish supper and when we came out i told my girlfriend to make a scene (but joking obviously) so the guy again with tears in his eyes thinking we serious says he doesnt have money now but i can come fetch R20 by him every week until the light is paid off lol so we just laughed and said we joking with him i then gave him a R20 and left...he really turned the day around for me just by how honest he was, i think most people dont actually acknowledge these guys enough but thats from the bad lot in the bunch who has given car guards a bad name but this just confirms there are still good people in the world.

sorry for the long story lol :duim:

I pity him sometimes cause hes always smiling but sensitive then you get those guys thats just plain rude to him. Anyway I'll invite that guy over for supper anytime :duim:

yes that side of Spar, i think its the first time ive seen him there i usually see that dude with the sunglasses when i go there...but to be very honest i dont really take much note, but from now on everytime i go there i will be sure to know who he is...i was still telling my girlfriend when we left what a nice guy he is and she was shocked i was cool carm and collective about the situation because i was in a bad mood when i got there and when it comes to my car i get really angry if anything happens to it, i think its something about that guy...i also wonder if it was anybody else how they wouldve handled that situation

Haha.. nope het net aardrykskunde in graad 8 en 9 gehad.. Eks 'n architect.. :claugh: Jy praat van Noord, oos, suid, wes.. So I couldve said on the side with the doggie parlour or not the N1's side but according to me every one knows where North is.. or atleast east is always where the sun rises the u know the rest. :thumbup:

Google maps :thumbup: .. easiest way to get a north point on a site.. I wanted to say Southern side.. but then I thought technically I think the building is kinda skew compared to the parkinglot so it seems more like SE
