I haven't been there for years and years. <BR/>I thought Isikeli would be there. <BR/>One time I took Mum and Dad there and it was a women's soli because the men hadn't paid their communal taxes. There were mekes and it was a delightful day.<BR/>Dr Tippett lived there one time didn't he? He wrote papers about some of the customs there.<BR/>I'm sure your clothes are neat and tidy.
