Insomniac, Dyslexic (Carnet spell), Learning the meaning of life, love beer, called a webaddict by my staff & friends, love Round Table, trying to make a difference in South Africa.

Hi Gerhard,
We met at CTICC at the Utango Workshop, we spoke briefly about my company that focuses on finding jobs for the matriculants and graduates that are living with disabilities. I know you are away and wish you all the best as you climb Mount Kilimanjaro-God bless and keep you safe under His wings.
Please contact me when you come back and we can set a meeting date.
Regards,
Vuyi
