OK. I understand that Geog at Ape Town schools is a tad sub-standard. So, here it is Stu: Durban is a fair old drive, even in a Constantia double-cab, north of Hermanus. And it’s warm (27deg today) and the locals do take the trouble to talk to out-of-towners. I hear your sharp intake of icy Cape Town breath as you face this uncharted territory. Relax. We understand why it is your Geography teacher was unable to tell you in which hemisphere your pseudo-Med city is placed. Why, even the owner of Hemisphere baulked at putting “Southern” in front of it. All good. We’re fine with that. Just leave our Jordy alone. And Twigs for that matter. Dirtbin boyz rool your waves (when they feel like it). Pip pip!

Jordy is a real good surfer, watched him a couple of times, such a good talent in the water!!! And after watching him land that Rodeo Flip, just proves how good! He’s been surfing CT waters for a while, so we’ll call him Capetonian for now.. hahahaha

Rothers, you somehow neglected to mention… Jordy Smith is Durban’s finest… it’s a 1oceanvibe, n’cest pas? Perhaps a bit like the English press claiming Sean Connery and, erm, Ewan McGregor (I struggled for a bit there) and a few other desirables as fellow Britons while the rest of the Scots are a resentful, rough-arsed wee army of whisky-soaks? Ce’st la vie mon ami
