Africa Time
Spanish singer Julio Iglesias was on television with British TV host
The host turned to Mr. Sopho Msondtlwana who was also on the show and asked him if there was an equivalent term in Xhosa, or other South African ethnic language. “No, Suh” he replied. “In Bafanaland, we don’t have a word to describe that degree of urgency.”
Anne Diamond when he used the word “mañana” (pronounced “manyana”).
Diamond asked him to explain what it meant.
He said that the term means “Maybe the job will be done tomorrow, maybe the next day, maybe the day after that. Perhaps next week, next month, next year. Who cares?” -

Long live the cape coloured
A Coloured, Whitey and an Indian sit in a restaurant.
They're staring at another man sitting on his own at a table in the corner.
He looks so familiar, and not recognising him is driving them mad.
They stare and stare, until suddenly the Coloured twigs:
"My goodness that is the POPE!"
Sure enough, it is the POPE.
Thrilled, they club in and send him over the best chow on the menu.
The Pope accepts the food, smiles over at the three men, and starts eating.
After he's finished eating, the Pope approaches the trio.
He reaches for the hand of the Durban Indian and shakes it, thanking him
for the food.
When he lets go, the Indian gives a cry of amazement:
"My Goodness! The arthritis I've had for 30 years is gone. It's a miracle!"
The Pope then also shakes the White's hand, thanking him.
As he lets go, the man's eyes widen in shock.
"Its true mate!!, The bad back I've had all my life is completely gone.
It's a freaking miracle!"
The Pope then approaches the Coloured who knocks over a chair and a table
in trying to get away from the Pope.
"What's wrong?" asks the Pope.
The Coloured shouts, "Jy raakie aan my nie, ek's op a disability grant!!! -
Fairy grants a wish
I met a fairy today who granted me one wish."I want to live forever," I said.
"Sorry," said the fairy, but I am not allowed to grant that type of wish.
"Fine,," I said,,
"Then I want to die when England win the world cup."
"You crafty bastard!" said the fairy.
