70 years young! Happy birthday.

Do you ever feel trapped or claustrophobic in a gated residence? It seems so foreign to me to not be able to walk outside the gates of your house.

Luckily you have a beautiful garden to walk around and I'm sure you'll be fit as a fiddle for the Netherlands! Saying that, maybe it's the netherlands that will get you fit for walking round your garden!

Haha it sounds like we'll get fitter over there!
Yep, here in SA it's rare to see a house without a fence, we can take a short stroll down the road but it's not safe as it's a quiet cul-de-suc so there's not much passing traffic.
High unemployment rates due to business closures post-Covid, loadshedding & the July 2021 Zuma riots, has fuelled crime.
There are many safe and beautiful areas, it's not all bad, so we often take a drive out, but everyone has a fence 😉
