    Thanks Godders, that was beautiful and made me cry. The song is Asimbonanga, written by Johnny Clegg, a white South African musician about Nelson Mandela. Here he is doing it in 1999, with a surprise guest:

    Thanks Godders and Chilco....Peter Gabriel's tribute to Stephen Biko, "Biko", always makes me choke and this song is just as fitting a tribute for Nelson Mandela...truly touching.

    The journalist's kids in the Biko case ended up going to my school. The library at the school had a signed copy of the book Biko which I took out to read.

    And promptly lost.

    Bad times. I still cringe at the memory.

    Are any of you game playing fanatics aware of this online game..?

    Edit: Had a look further and you know what..? I've a sneaky feeling your average XBox One or PS4 ain't up to doing this stuff. It's a gaming PC or nothing. Have a look: http://worldofwarplanes.com/

    Well, it's a morale question for you, and I'm not going to advise you either way, or tell you what I'd do, but... if you do keep it, don't whatever you do sell it on, give it away, or use it for a period of about 6 months at the very least. The store may eventually find out their error and then they will cause you all sorts of grief about it.

    It appears the man has a fully functional morale compass. Nice to see one in action. :)

    Isn't that pretty much what Ireland is? People driving around with farm animals?
