Hello

Hi Guys

I am 32Bn from South Africa I started playing in the Capella uni then moved to Electra and now here. I trade Foreign Exchange for a living. Although I am semi retired was in the Army for 26 years started right after I left school so I guess that gives my age away any case love this game, have fun

south africa u say? nice

where exactly?

Capital of SA, Pretoria in the Gauteng province.

and how is there? i heard quite nice opinions about pretoria (as for africa)

Well it is a city but more with the feel of a big town. In summer it is very pretty with the purple flowers of the Jacaranda trees and very green. The city it self lies in a small valley and therefore is relatively wind free. I life on the outskirts in the hill just to the south of the city which some consider to be the rich man suburb, but me I am an active service soldier that trade the Foreign exchange market on the side, so I have and additional income stream. Like most Africa cities Pretoria is actually the jewel of South Africa as compare to cape Town in the south or Durban on the east coast. I love it here as I am sitting and typing here it is 32 degree C with good chances of afternoon thunder storms ( we love rain in Africa). There are quite a few malls around here last count about 14 big size malls and about 35 smaller ones, lots to do here from going to the movies to theater, night clubs, sport centers (rugby, cricket, tennis,soccer, shooting clubs and so on). We have a couple of good size dams close by for water sports and the city it self have it own airport for domestic flights. The Cullinan Diamond mine is about 35 min drive from here that is where the worlds largest diamonds come from and you can go and visit it. Infrastructure very good roads and rail only complaint is that the bus service can improve but I heard they are working on that. So all in all a nice city to live, work and play in

I sound like a travel agent hehehe

By the way my name is Cobus the term 32 Bn is from one of my old military units we were a bunch of hooligans when we were fighting in Angola they use to call us either Buffalo Soldiers or in Portuguese The Terrible One's. We sort of never took any prisoners of war and we always won our fights

hehe, nice, u sound proud of it gj

and about the city, is that, hmm, friendly? is it safe?

Yes it is of course like any big city we do have crime but if you stay out of the city center and visit the outlaying centers there is no problem.

Pretoria as compared to Johannesburg which has began to be nest of evil Nigerians and Ghanaians is as safe as houses.

We Praetorians proud our self on our hospitality and friendliness we are not called the Jacaranda City for nothing

Sorry Pretorians

The Roman Empire is long gone

Well tell something about you

Well they are THE HOSTS OF WORLD CUP 2010

Yes we are, some are proud of it, some is not, we are not really a soccer playing nation, RUGBY and CRICKET is our game. Soccer is more government driven. But yes we host it and it will be a good African show, hope the world will tolerate the Vuvusela's that thing makes an awful racket, lol but it is an African thing so the world will learn it's sound

Well its all for people

What are Soccer, Cricket and Rugby? They don't play them in America! Go USA!!!

joking

Oh man what a pity, you guys in the USA miss out on so much fun in the world. Cricket and Rugby is for real men with big brass cahunas, played without any protective gear, full on contact, man what a spectacle to watch and play. Gridiron is for guys that wish they could play rugby. LOL

JOKING

Coming to the USA in 2011 for an International Pistol Shooting competition in Arkansas can't wait to kick some butt hehehehehe

If everyone in the world played cricket, and subscribed to its ethics and manners, the world would be a better place!! Although to be fair, you could say the same for baseball, also played with good spirit and good respect between the teams...
