This winter was even more brutal than I would have liked it to be, say the writer. September, popularly known as the Heritage Month, marks the African new year. New beginnings, a new season and a build-up to the December holidays which frankly is probably the most eagerly anticipated 31 days of the entire year. SA and South Africans transform in December, everyone is jovial and high-spirited. We’re just a “happy to be here” bunch altogether.
