“Men often become what they believe themselves to be. If I believe I cannot do something, it makes me incapable of doing it. But when I believe I can, then I acquire the ability to do it even if I didn’t have it in the beginning.” – Ghandi
What a eventful last 7 months!
- No work!
- One of my big dreams shattered!
- Almost losing my house, because I had not paid rent for 6 months!
- Almost dieing because I don’t have health care!
- and my ex is on cocaine!
I’ve been through hell the last 7 months, that is if you looking in from the outside! In truth I had one or two rough days, but generally it was been great. Somethings genuinely can’t be measure, like having my boys 80% of the time the last 7 months, they kept me alive, they kept me dreaming, they made me smile everyday!
Things have turned and some have changed but the ultimate goal of my boys happiness is still on track, because some times its not about money, good schools or anything other than spending quality time with your children. I will always be grateful for my boys, they give me the courage to stand up ever morning and be greatful and dream 
The goals over the short term is:
- Make a successful business using Google Apps
- Create a social network for schools
- Create a Labor Consultant business
- Create a online Adult Dating site
- Get Miguel back into Hilton!
If you don’t dream, you will not succeed…
Day Trip to Hilton … 8 March, 2009
Posted by The Dreamer in dreams, Hilton College, the boys, the secret.add a comment
… 4am on a Sunday morning!!!! What was I smoking Miguel had his six a side tournament at Hilton, Romario & I was going to support him 
We had packed all the essentials, 18 x Millers, 6 x pack of bacon, 48 x eggs, 1 x skottel and cutlery. 2km down the road we remembered the 48 rolls that was left behind & we still had 480km to go with 4½ hrs to go, so “stuff it” we will get some fresh rolls on the way
A couple of hours & speed fines later, we hit the midlands, thick with rain clouds & mist but still a beautiful scene with rolling green mountains as a background 
… 8:20am arrive at Hilton village looking for the local bakery, we find it and clean them out of all there fresh rolls armoured with all the ingredients and equipment for bacon & egg rolls we arrive at Hilton College Miguel slaughters their first opponents with 30 runs of off 4½ overs, 30 seconds & 16 becon and eggs rolls later the boys are ready for their next game
… 11am Hilton tour starts, great marketing ploy you have to admire the school Romario gets to see his future accommodation, the class rooms, the old chapel, dining room hall (more like 5 star hotel) and the game farm 
…12:30pm lunch is served at the club house, what a setup, who said the old colonial style of things is a thing of the past.
…3:30pm Without getting all boring the last game was full of action Miguel bowls the last over and on his first ball the batsman gets drop, what an expensive drop he goes on to make
another 20 runs of Miguel’s over. St. Peters’ turn to bat & Miguel goes firing bats all 5 overs and makes 24 runs but 18 runs short of the final target, what a pitty, but the boys had fun & Hilton got to see one of their future scholars in action
Stress … 1 September, 2007

I am not sure exactly how it works, but this is amazingly accurate. Read the full description before looking at the picture.
The picture below has 2 identical dolphins in it. It was used in a case study on stress levels at The Mater Hospital.
… Look at both dolphins jumping out of the water. The dolphins are identical.
… A closely monitored, scientific study revealed that, in spite of the fact that the dolphins are identical, a person under stress would find differences in the two dolphins.
The more differences a person finds between the dolphins, the more stress that person is experiencing.
Look at the photograph and if you find more than one or two differences you may want to take a vacation.
No Need to Reply,
…I’ll be on Vacation
… Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway
… As somebody once said, “There is one sure thing in life, you are going to die!”
… So live life to the fullest & make sure you have fun & smile!!!!
A short note … 1 September, 2007
Posted by The Dreamer in fun, happiness, Lady Luck, smile.add a comment
It seems that I have a new nickname from Lady Luck, “Orange Packer Connection from Zeb” – OPZ, I would love to put up a poll & see what the general consensus would be.
Yesterday my poor Lady Luck didn’t have a great day & it was so hard being a million miles away from her, because all I wanted to do was hold her tight in my arms. I on the other hand, had an absolute marvellous day. I got my big project signed, a project that I have been trying to get of the ground for 3 years, guess I should never go in sales!
Needless to say I went out with the boys to MY MY, what a blast! As soon as I arrived we got stuck in, we had something to celebrate, but I paid some big fines! You see while all the guys were busy chatting to the girls, I was busy smsing Lady Luck! The sms got a little bit out of hand & I am claiming the 5th & blaming alcohol. One thing is for sure I need to get to London, this dreamer imagination of mine is getting totally out of control.
The one downside yesterday was, I missed Lady Luck’s call!!!
Anyway today is another day, “another shit day in Africa”….
… tranquillity is bliss, I might have gotten some off the best advice last night from a person that has been divorce for 16 years & has the best relationship with his boys! “walk away with just your suitcase & start again!” & Lady Luck gave me the same advice! I have had it with my ex & her bullshit, so on Monday I will instruct the lawyer just to settle, I don’t care anymore…
Anyway I have other important things to think about! How to get to London soooon!!

… at least for now
The joys of the having 2 boys, everything is a competition and you can never show weakness else they will lynch you in two seconds…
This week has been a roller coaster of emotions, the ex has decided to declare full scale war until she hit the brick wall & the first force of resistance that she never expected. Then there was the ever present Lady Luck, my staff are convinced that I have had sex every day this week, they so wrong! Lady Luck has push my tank of lust for life to 110% full I have not smiled so much for so long, she provides me with an energy that makes me walk on cloud9 & makes me feel like I can concur the world.
I can’t wait to see Lady Luck again, the sms are flying daily & I have great fun in my meetings flirting with a sexy lady thousands of miles away.
… Lady Luck, all I can say is, I miss your beautiful naughty smile and every day I hear that sexy voice over the phone I just want to jump on the first plane to London.
The Taxi Driver … 30 August, 2007

A taxi passenger tapped the driver on the shoulder to ask him a question.
The driver screamed …
… lost control of the car, nearly hit a bus, went up on the footpath, and stopped centimeters from a shop!
For a second everything went quiet in the cab, then the driver said:
“Look mate, don’t ever do that again. You scared the daylights out of me!”
The passenger duly apologized and said, “I didn’t realise that a little tap would scare you so much.”
The driver replied, “Sorry, it’s not really your fault. Today is my first day as a cab driver – I’ve been driving a mortuary van for the last 25 years.”
Fishing with the boys … 27 August, 2007

Saturday was not one of my better days, I had to say goodbye to Lady Luck before she went off to London, it was a sad moment & I didn’t quite know how to do it. I mean I knew the lady for a week. The amazing part was that I got very close to her, we shared some very personal things, which made our relationship very special in my eyes.
So I did the next best thing I took the boys fly fishing on Sunday & made them a promise if we catch any trout we will go to aunty Mandy for lunch & she will cook the trout for us, the first one to catch a fish will have the honour of being called “SIR” for the day by the other two.
We arrived at our destination at about 8am – 8:30am and made our first cast at only 9:30am, don’t ask everything went wrong getting the tackle together. My mind was on a sexy Lady Luck in red.
The fishing was the same as always, everybody caught except my two, which is not a bad thing if you think that it cost R60 a KG! Miguel’s casting was improving & Romario was still battling a little bit with a long cast. I got some time to day dream about the special moments I share with Lady Luck. 
So as a good dad I started to help the boys with their casting & I casted two long once for Romario, the second cast is what started it all. I caught one the first / second in 2 years!!! I had to make a quick call to Mandy & hope and pray she would accommodate us!!! The great lady she is, we quickly arranged everything, and the only problem was I needed more fish!!! Within an hour we caught another 4, 3 by me & 1 by Miguel.
Mandy made a great supper with a recipe of the internet:
One rainbow trout, a wedge of peach, a wedge of lemon, sprig of thyme, six or seven blueberries, a wedge of inner red onion, a plum, three sheets of newspaper, mixed leaves, ciabatta and olive oil.
METHOD: Clean and gut the trout, then arrange the stuffing ingredients in the colour order of the rainbow and put them in the trout. Wrap the trout in newspaper and soak in cold water. Place the trout on the barbecue and cook until the paper is dry. Unwrap the newspaper carefully to leave you with a clear, colourful trout stuffed with a sweet-and-sour filling.
Sounds great & it tasted incredible, thx Mandy you a star.

Lady Luck was defiantly a person I needed to meet in life I don’t care what happens going forward, but I met a person that matches my positive outlook in life. She has that smile that makes you happy all the way to the bottom of your stomach…
… She has a heart of gold, she is that voice in the back of your head when you stand at a cross road & you know she would tell you to take the right because that is the right way to go & you will do just that…
…Then there is that smile, it is innocent, it is warm, it is kind & it has just a hint of naughtiness, that would make you go back for more …
… Then there is the kiss…..
… I need to get my thoughts together, bottom line is she is fun & she makes you want to get up in the morning & just smile …
Six degrees of separation … 21 August, 2007
Posted by The Dreamer in blackjack, fun, Lady Luck, Liverpool.add a comment
You might ask yourself why the hell I put this article up. Simple it all started on Sunday 19th August 2007…
… I went & gambled at MonteCasino. Across the table sat two ladies playing blackjack, the youngest one caught my eye. She had a smile that would melt any man’s heart and the kindest eyes that would make Mother Teresa look like the devil (oops that’s quite harsh), bottom line I started flirting with Lady Luck as I called her, seeing that she was winning all the cash on the table I did know what her name was but I needed my intro
I finished playing blackjack at a very strategic time, got up and walked away & two steps behind me she followed. My timing was perfect & before she knew it we where having a drink in the VIP lounge. We chatted about a lot of things but the one thing was very clear, her son was her everything & secondly she could not stand football.
Seeing I was on a roll & time was a factor, due to the fact that London is her home & she was on her way back in 6 days time, I offered to take her for dinner. Almost at the venue she politly explains that one of her customers was Liverpool!!!! (What a show off, Liverpool is my team & they are the best ever!!!) … Before I get stuck on that topic … We had a wonderful dinner, she made me feel alive & I discovered that she is one incredible kisser
Monday morning I was in turmoil, will she phone me, should I phone her, the time factor, aaag you get the picture …
…yes I phoned & politely inquired on my chances to take her for dinner. To my delight she agreed, you see, she has to meet an old friend for dinner on Tuesday night and she needed somebody to hold her hand I agreed & inquired a little further about her friend …
… Then the devil’s name got uttered “Shannon”! Shannon happens to be my ex wife’s new best friend! Thus the title “Six degrees of separation”, we all know the person next to us, one way or another…
… yes Lady Luck is very sexy, u perverts!
