Welcome Dave! :thumbup: We have a few more of your countrymen that are members here, but they don't seem to be too active lately. :think: One of the things that hampers our international members a little is the use of our local language, Afrikaans. There is a translate facility on the site that you should make use of to assist you. Enjoy your experience with us! ;-)

Pretty much ..... Dutch / German / Flemish and perhaps a little French influence. ;-)

IF you see a post that is in Afrikaans and the online translators give you no joy, feel free for someone to translate it for you. Most users on the forum are bilingual :thumbup:
