On Saturday morning I had a surprise! Veronica Fourie, SABC-journalist and media colleague of the previous century, called to say she was in the Richmond Hill area.
She is such an outgoing person that I thought I could turn an ordinary tea-visit into something different. Out went a little table, chairs etc and within minutes we were comfortable under the large plane tree on the pavement. We saw life passing while we had a serious philosophical conversation
We could even invite a very distinguished begger to our table. Daniel was coming to the Cornerstone church next door to ask for food. While Veronica listened to his tragic story of losing his house in a fire in New Brighton, I could go to the kitchen to fix him breakfast.
