JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) – A South African man who shot his pregnant fiance dead before killing himself will be posthumously married to her at the weekend.
Police Captain Mohale Ramatseba said David Masenta shot 25-year-old Mgwanini Molomo after a quarrel before turning the gun on himself. But Johannesburg’s Sowetan newspaper said family and friends wanted to remember them as a happy couple destined for a happy life together.
The groom’s corpse would be dressed in a cream suit and his bride’s in a gown for the ceremony, at which a priest in the rural village of Ceres in Limpopo will bless the union before the two are buried, the Sowetan said.
“In African culture, there is no death—there is merely the separation of body and soul,” said cultural expert Mathole Motshekga. “It is also important because the families are married together.”
“This does not mean the relationship has irretrievably broken down.”

Not much happening here………

There’s not much on it at the moment but it does use a pretty cool flash based gallery system. Go and have a look if you want and come back with any suggestions.

Love’s a mystery to everyone except the poets, I guess, and nobody sane can understand a thing they write about it.

At last the weather’s calmed down a bit! According to the news this morning we had 20+ hours of continuous 75kph (47mph) gusting to 180kph (112mph) winds which is the worst we’ve had for about 40 years. People are in the process of cleaning up from floods, wind damage and landslides now……… Luckily we were OK but my mother had water coming in through the doors and windows on the south side of her house due to the wind and spent yesterday continually mopping up water 🙁
In other news I’ve just bought another domain, http://www.holgability.com, for two years. I have no idea what I’ll do with it, I just liked the name. Now all I have to do is tell Vic!
