Yes ariadne that'd be nice. To me growing up, Natal was - paradise!

I was in KwaZuluNatal in March, and am hoping to return in May! Loved every minute. Doing some stuff up in Dundee. Talk about it after Christmas? Xx

I like it. It's the name of the province in South Africa where I was born (so named by Vasco da Gama) ... now KwaZulu Natal. Where the Christmas greeting in Zulu is 'IKhisimusi uMuhle'. smile

a lovely phrase. As in "yonder shines his natal star".

I wonder if we all have a natal star.
