			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Weekendly Report</p>
<ul>
<li>Leaving car keys in the boot while taking things out&#8230; even though the car itself is open &#8211; is not a good idea when the fucking boot is master locked. BMW on call is fabulous. R400 is worth every cent. At the end of the day&#8230; you have no idea what another person is thinking, especially when they decide to close it.</li>
<li>It seems to be becoming a habit that &#8211; I watch a sunday night movie, where one of the woman has a gorgeous thick fringe&#8230; lets think Anne Hathaway in The Devil Wears Prada&#8230; and i feel that &#8211; i just HAVE to have one. As in&#8230; my life would be incomplete if i did not have one. Thank god for the fact&#8230; i don&#8217;t have one of those HUGE foreheads, or tiny ones&#8230; so i can do things like this and not end up looking like a doos.</li>
<li>I&#8217;ve said this before&#8230; and i&#8217;ll say it again &#8211; i love lazy sunday morning breakfasts. I loved the weekend before lasts&#8230; and i quite liked yesterdays&#8230; I&#8217;ve made it a mission to take part on this activity every sunday.</li>
<li>I fucking hate valentines day. As in Fuh-king hate. I have never, in my 26 years on this earth being in love over this time. It&#8217;s quite simply how the planets have aligned themselves. I&#8217;ve never hated it before&#8230; i&#8217;ve always done things on the day.. i can&#8217;t say i&#8217;m a <em>mopy kinda sit around and wait for the phone to ring kinda girl</em>. But this year i&#8217;ve decided&#8230; I fucking hate it.</li>
<li>The above statement might be related to the fact that, atm &#8211; i&#8217;m not getting laid and it is getting to me somewhat.</li>
<li>It is just over a month until i might be leaving for Europe. I am torn. Shall i stay or shall i go&#8230; what shall i do. When shall i decide. Dum dee dum.</li>
<li>I might be off to Mauritius&#8230; as a friend won this and well.. her married boyfriend might just not get his leave application signed by his wife in time.</li>
<li>I have experienced many weekends in my life. 1352 maybe&#8230; But this weekend in particularly FLEW by. Faster than any of the other 1352 i&#8217;m sure.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: right"><em>Foxtrot Mike Lima&#8230; OUT</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>As most girls go, i&#8217;m up for a challenge as much as the next. In fact, when it comes to men &#8211; i am ALWAYS up for as much of a challenge as possible.</p>
<p>So, regarding <em>The Fanny</em> post &#8211; once my cunt had calmed down and returned to me &#8211; i of course thought it would be of great interest to see just how far i could take things with FannyBoy. Introduce him to grown up sexual member related words. IE the words which turn ME on.</p>
<p>On <em>That Camping</em> weekend - FannyBoy happened to join us for the saturday night. At some point FannyBoy and i were lazing around &#8211; i reading the comso, this months sex servey &#8211; and him, reading it over my shoulder.</p>
<p>Perfect i thought&#8230; a little intro into modern day Cosmo sex&#8230;</p>
<p>An hour or so later.. i&#8217;m lying in the tent, and he is sitting outside with everyone else around the &#8216;camp fire&#8217;. Out of the blue.. i recieve an sms &#8220;Hi There&#8221;&#8230;</p>
<p>Ah&#8230; we exchange a few sms&#8217;es. And get to..</p>
<p>JHBP &#8220;So, what turns you on&#8230;?&#8221;<br />

<p>Which i do.. and he sticks his tongue out at him. <em>[Ah.... que perfect timing]</em></p>
<p>JHBP &#8220;Would it be that pulling a tongue turns you on&#8230; or a wanting tongue on a wet cunt!?&#8221;</p>

<li><font face="Times New Roman">The Cape is truly gorgeous, <em>baring Gordons Bay, The Strand and Somerset West </em></font></li>

<li><font face="Times New Roman">The gorgeousness of the cape only begins once you leave the airport.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Cape people remain FAR more friendlier than the Joburgers</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Breakfast at the V&amp;A hotel is ALWAYS a good idea.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Pretending you’re staying there and getting the concierge to book your trip to Robin Island is a BETTER idea</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Visiting Robin Island is a very moving adventure</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Getting sea sick on the way back to the main land is NOT fun</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">at all</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">The Village Bistro in Constantia is AMAZING</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">So much so we visited it three times</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">We were like family</font></li>

<li><font face="Times New Roman">Finding someone who will MAKE you leather hand bags for R250 is priceless</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Getting VERY lost looking for Woodheads is not.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Drinks at ‘<em>the nelly’</em> is up there</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Cosmo’s at <em>the nelly</em> might just rate top out of all cosmo’s consumed on the trip</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Dinner with friends at Society Bistro is all ways good fun.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Parking 5km’s away is not.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Booking a wine tasting tour for 9am the morning after the dinner that took you BACK to the nelly for more drinks</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Is not a good idea</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Having a private bus for a wine tasting tour is the ONLY way to roll</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Thelma is average</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Tokara is gorgeous</font></li>

<li><font face="Times New Roman">Shopping in Stellenbosch is great.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Meeting an interesting ‘artist’ is even better</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Having him personalise your art is special</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Listening to long, in depth, complex stories regarding the piece of art is charming</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Until you realise he wants you to buy both</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Buying both always seems like a good idea at the time</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Pretending he is dead famous – is always a good idea</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Life begins at the 12 Apostles.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">You haven’t lived until you’ve had a full body massage, drinks in the leopard room and lunch on the deck.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Be warned – do NOT book the buffet on a Sunday</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">And wear sun block. ALWAYS</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">And drink rose. </font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Lots of it</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Seeing Freshly Ground at Kirstenbocsh is an experience</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Rod Stewart would have been better</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">But oh well</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Cape people don’t believe in</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Being on time</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Or</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Personal space</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Sharing is caring – 4 on a blanket when there were only 2 – why not?!</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">You really really haven’t lived until you’ve had drinks at the Martini bar at the  Houtenout in Constantia.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Staying for dinner isn’t really worth it.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Especially after a day in the hot sun.</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">After a Cosmo or two in the bar</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Don’t go splashing the Cosmo on your pants – Poncy waiters don’t like that</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Pedlar on the bend was just fine</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Francshoek is gorgeous</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Gorgeously over priced</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">The whole of CT is gorgeously over priced</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Shopping in Francshoek is a lovely fantasy</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Tracey’s being the ONLY place to shop</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Chocolate in Francshoek is a little disappointing</font></li>

<li><font face="Times New Roman">Staying the night in francshoek seemed at the time like a good idea</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">But it was not</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">KLM cabin crew are lovely</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Their broken English is charming</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Meerlust was an after thought – and possibly the best tasting of the entire trip</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Dinner at Le Quartier Francais was an experience</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">6 courses was a perfect choice</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">4 might actually have been better</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">8 was madness</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Worst Cosmo’s found at Le Quartier Francais</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">But the wine was good</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">And the food was amamzing</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">I wish I’d found out who ‘john the famous guy’ who sat at the next table really was</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">The wind never stopped</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Which is probably a good thing</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">We might have melted otherwise</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Driving back to CT from Francshoek was sad</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Taking the road via Paarl was…. bizarre</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Picking up our customer handbags was exciting</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Driving out to Somerset West was a BAD idea</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Finding the Strand was just Sad</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Landing up in Gordon’s bay was just disappointing and smelt of fire</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">GPS’ing our back to into CT to have lunch at the Brass Bell was excellent</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Bumping into the Taxi drama in the CBD was a little dicey</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Arriving at the Horrid airport 2 hours early was stupid</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Not being able to get on an earlier flight was annoying</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Flight home was fine</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Getting out of bed this morning was HARD</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Day dreaming about the weekend is currently happening</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Finding the energy is not happening</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">Planning the next trip is next on the to do list</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">I never thought I’d get to 97</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">It was truly a perfect girls weekend away</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">The next one might have to be at the Hydro in KZN</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">I read an excellent book while there</font></li>
<li><font face="Times New Roman">And bought a gorgeous dress!</font></li>
