Traveling Time

Father got itchy feet so left Jo'Burg and headed south, ended up in Port Elizabeth for a spell, not long enough to go to school, didn't complain, then back in car to the Natal, Durban, still out of school and enjoying life living in hotels, then due to the humid climate astma paid me a visit, nearly died and we were told to head for warmer climates so back in the car, all the way to Rhodesia as it was then called, Salisbury first then we started the mining rounds, that ment boarding shool for me, what a shocker, a controled invioment where we did what were told or punishment was quick to follow, getting up to weed the cricket pitch was not my idea of a good time but at least the climate was better for my health. I would look forward to the summer breaks so that we were driven the hundreds of k's to where my father was working where the sun was very much enjoyed.
