Happenings in Cape Town

Ship Aground

I’m sure things must have happened in London, but I don’t think I ever heard about it, untill I read about it in London Lite, or one of those free afternoon papers, unless it was really big news.
But one of the cool things about Cape Town, and SA is that small things that happen do make it to my conscious, and I get to see them.

For example, this Coal Carrier ran aground last night, after some really really strong winds made it drag its anchor. That obviously happened during the evening, and its now 10am, and I have already heard about it, and can now see a picture of it.

Firstly, I suppose I have to thank the internet, and secondly have to thank Ogilvy Cape Town for making me wake up early enough to hear about it this am.
