YOU (South Africa)

COME RAIN OR SHINE

-

and we’re known as SNL (Saturday Night Live).

There are so many women in South Africa who’d love to be out and about but don’t necessaril­y want to go on “dates”. At 15 members strong our group is full but I’m sharing my idea with YOU readers in case anyone else wants to start their own group.

I advertised for free in a community magazine and on Facebook, suggesting that anyone who enjoys good movies and good company meet me at a mall at a certain time and date. I said I’d be standing there with an Irish flag. The rest is history. ANNE LAPEDUS BREST, SANDTON It rained early on Thursday morning, probably about the time my YOU was being delivered. I retrieved a wet, sorrylooki­ng YOU from my doorstep.

It’s now Saturday afternoon and I’m pleased to report my YOU is dry and readable. Yay! I was beginning to have withdrawal symptoms. My YOU magazine is one of my small indulgence­s as a pensioner.

Thank you to everybody who makes the magazine informativ­e and educationa­l and keeps us up to date with the celebs and their antics. And thank you for the crosswords and sudoku.
