Kate Pallardy - Thai Massage
Walking towards my massage I see angelically written on the little shops front massage for everyday people. It seemed so innocent and gentle.

Christine Waitz - Why you should never pass anything to me...
I wouldn't say I was a sporty kid. To tell the truth, I was completely unathletic. While the kids in my neighborhood were playing tag or ball I preferred to read my books or to draw. I think that's the reason why you should never expect me to catch something no matter if it's a ball or a key or w... read more

Yesterday, the final race of the year in South Africa took place in Germiston, which forms part of the Greater Johannesburg. The reputation of Germiston is, well, at best a little dodgy!
