I've much less connection with South Africa than you've got with Finland.
Specifically, none whatsoever...

Note that the European names in South Africa didn't start there, they started
in Europe!

English, on the other hand, is my native language and I speak that, rather
than the debased variety spoken in the colonies:-)

Moi? Everyone knows Im just a simple, harmless lovable fuzzball, a
working peon and a lover of good books, fine guns, easy women and warm

What more could one be?

"Somewhere a True Believer is training to kill you. He is training with
minimum food or water,in austere conditions, day and night. The only thing
clean on him is his weapon. He doesn't worry about what workout to do---
his rucksack weighs what it weighs, and he runs until the enemy stops chasing him.
The True Believer doesn't care 'how hard it is'; he knows he either wins or he dies.
He doesn't go home at 1700; he is home. He knows only the 'Cause.' Now, who wants to quit?"
