LIFE IS ANYTHING BUT A BIND

















Long-time friends Christel Borck and Barbara Meyer, from Germany, enjoyed a surprisingly warm winter's day having brunch on the deck overlooking Britannia Bay.

We talked about their respective careers and agreed that retired life is wonderful, as it allows one to dabble in all manner of interesting pursuits, Christel's being book-binding.

Here she's used the inner tube lining of her bicycle tire to cover her diary and the postcards are simply corrugated cardboard cut to size which she decorates with something indicative of the country she's travelling through. In our case I guess it could have been JuJu's picture adorning the cover, but taste ruled and her friends back home instead will see the Big Five and labels from product bottled at Klein Zalze Wine Estate. Much better than Malema, don't you think?
