Homesickness or Head-sickness'!

From The Soutpiel Phenomenon, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Come rain or shine, hell or high water, Craig begins his day with a cup of coffee and The Herald. Besides the fact that he wishes his coffee was a 'regte egte koppie Ricoffy', reading the South African news is his way of maintaining his roots while we're living abroad. More importantly, his reading of The Herald connects him to Port Elizabeth and the Eastern Cape. If a place could be a religion, Craig would be the most zealous and fervent Port Elizabthanite! But what is so intriguing about this... Read more

When Jehovah runs out of puff

From Put 'em all on an island, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

There I was, this morning, minding my own business, having a breakfast of egg soldiers, when a knock on the door woke me from my mid-morning reverie. It sort of startled me because we hardly ever get any visitors who have to knock on our front door when they visit (the last one was Denise Roche when she was canvassing for votes in her successful bid to become our City Councillor almost 3 years ago).A duo of women of a certain age stood there huffing and puffing. The trek to our front door is,... Read more

Part-Time Paradise is a Full-Time Hell

From Dropped In, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

Believe me I flagellate every time I even think about complaining, so don’t get upset and decide that I’m awful. But every holiday must end and even the beach gets boring, especially in a town such as this. Chelem, like the mysterious city Brigadoon, is not meant to exist all the time. It only comes to life during Semana Santa and the summer temporada. It’s quiet, almost too quiet, and when we first moved in I was spooked. I’ve grown accustomed to the stars. I take long...

Canadian Mortgage Lending Changes

From Edmonton Real Estate Investor, 5 month ago, Read 0 times. Similar articles

From April 19th look out for new federal rules that may affect your next real estate purchase.Basically...1. Lenders will have to now evaluate potential buyers based on the 5 yr fixed rate at the time of purchase. Even if the buyer decides to go with a different "type" of mortgage. This will probably only affect you if your Total Debt Service Ratio (ability to borrow based on the amount of debt you can reasonably carry) is on the high side. If you can get a good TDSR at the 3 year 3% then a... Read more
