That´s us. Hendriette and Robert.

Hi there, and thanks for dropping by. We hope you are having fun with our Homepage.

The two of us are a pretty mixed bag. Being South African and German (with a Down Under touch to it) we speak English, Afrikaans, German and, of course, Hessisch! On top of this we have a lot of different interests, some of which are featured here on our homepage.

Age? Let´s just say that there is a grade four between the two of us. Which speaks for HIS luck and HER good taste, doesn´t it................. Henry is the more lively of us, spontanious combustion included. Robert, on the other side, is working hard on gaining a reputation as being a couch potatoe.

In addition to runing a tight ship with her poor old husband, Henry also runs her own little company, called Cape Art - having turned her hobby of painting in oil into a side-business. Please visit Henry´s Art-Page under www.cape-art.com.

What else is there? Al Bundy is a role model. Fullstop. Dan Connor is fantastic, and Homer Simpson is the saviour from a different world. Groucho Marx was the only true Anarchist and Robin Williams - as a stand up - is the greatest comedian alive. For that matter, John Wayne is sadly missed!

Some people describe our state of mind as being “very southern hemisphere-ish”, or laid back. Perhaps because we either originate from there (Henry), or having lived there (Rob). Who can blame us for that? There is nothing better than sunshine, the sound of the ocean, a Braai (BBQ!), beer or some good Aussie wine and - if Henry permits - sports on the telly.  Sounds great, ey.

Our family is scattered over two continents and a rare breed. Although we are not particularly fond of the Poms (just kidding) we speak english at home and follow most of their sports.

We are not the kind who want to bore you with life´s wisdom and/or pseudo-philosophical news. Bugger off, Do-Gooders. We tend to stick to Balu The Bear and his views. Relax, calm down, have fun and enjoy the “bear (bare) necesseties” - and what they are is up to one self! Its as simple as that.

We leave you with a picture of Long Beach near Cape Town, South Africa. If you like to get in touch with us just click in the pic and sent us a mail. Cheers.
