Double cab bakkies and cars of that general variety will always have extremely friggin uncomfortable passenger seats - the second row I mean. The height of the seat (too low) and the leg room (too little) and the arm rests make for a ride in the very armpit of comfort.
Foreign contractors will complain about a rough ride off road until they work out how much other foreigners pay to do the exact same thing for leisure.

Squirrels can run like the blazes when they hear a car coming - like a tiny furry streak of lightning. (I saw a squashed hedgehog tho :C I was very very sad for it having it's short life snuffed out)
Swedish people are peeeeee-dantic about saving paper. (blush - mean old men)
It's expensive to check your email from outside the border and expensive to recieve text messages but it's so worth it to know that someone misses you :D
Yaay for December time - bring on the iced pink drinks and the swimming pool - and the sunscreen. Sunscreen smell always makes me think of the beach and holidays - it's a happy smell, a memory of younger more carefree days ...sigh :)
