| I am often asked “So did you enjoy meeting
all these people and doing this book?” to which I reply “Does
Dolly Parton sleep on her back?” Actually I don’t say
that at all but I’ve always wanted to use that response and
have never had the chance so I just stuck it in here. |
| |
| I never have those wise guy quick responses ready
when I should, so what I politely say to them is “Yes, I thoroughly
enjoyed it.” So much so that I’m going to do “South
Africans in Perth” and “South Africans in Toronto”
and “South Africans in Houston” and “South Africans
in Dubai” and “South Africans in New York” and others,
and they are all going to be available on this website so keep on
checking here. |

| This book is neither a travel guide
to London nor is it a self-help book on emigrating from South
Africa to London. |
| |
| It’s simply a book of human interest
about ex-South Africans who now live in London, why they chose
to go there and how they are adapting to life there. |
| |
| It is not about backpackers or youngsters
on a gap holiday. It is about ex-South Africans who have lived
in London for many years and have taken British citizenship
or are in the process of doing so. |
