Have you had a weird Friday 13th experience??
See if you can top this one/two.
On Friday 13th September 1996 my wife went through her cars windscreen during an accident and fractured two neck vertebrae. Had to walk arround with "scaffolding" around her head for three months.
Then on the first Friday 13th September after the accident. This was six years later in 2002. She jokingly reminded me that morning that we should be carefull because it's the anniversary of her bad experience.
At 13h00 that afternoon I was shot in the face by hi-jacker/robbers!!!! and ended up in ICU with my jaw in 8 pieces and damaged artery in the neck (luckely the one that flows away from the brain!!)
Anyway, I see this as a LUCKY day because we both survived!!

I've had very little forum time ... had to WORK!
When your road comes to an end ...... you need a HILUX!.

Don't take life too seriously ..... no-one gets out alive.
It's not about waiting for storms to pass. It's about learning to dance in the rain.
And be yourself ..... everyone else is taken!

Jy is n swak verkoopsman. Jy moet vir swartvart mooi opsigtelik voor die winkel parkeer,sodra jy sien iemand stel belang in swartvark dan gaan jy na die persoon toe en jy se vir hom jy het iets beter.Dit is dan wanneer jy vir hom die amarok wys
Ek soek kommissie op elke amarok wat jy so verkoop
