Dear Moms, Dads, Relatives, Educators and Business Owners!

January was a quiet month for events and entertainment whilst we all got ourselves organised for 2007.

February has a lot more on the go such as Barney and Friends at Gold Reef City, The Cape Country Picnic Festival near Paarl and the Chinese Circus in Durban. These are just a few of the highlights for this month. For more shows, theatre and of course Valentines' Day events, read below.

Until next time....
