1st time in history SA won medals for rowing and canoeing
Posted by admin in News, South Africa on November 23, 2012
South Africa competed at the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, United Kingdom, from 27 July to 12 August 2012. This was the nation’s sixth consecutive appearance at the Olympics in the post-apartheid era. The South African Sports Confederation and Olympic Committee (SASCOC) sent a total of 125 athletes to the Games, 67 men and 58 women, to compete in 17 sports.
Notable South African athletes featured track stars Oscar Pistorius and Caster Semenya, who both became the nation’s greatest highlight to the Games. Pistorius, a four-time Paralympic champion, set South Africa’s historical record as the first double-leg amputee to compete at the Olympics. Semenya, a middle-distance runner and a world champion who had been subjected to gender testing in 2009, became the nation’s flag bearer at the opening ceremony.
For the first time in its history, South Africa had won Olympic medals in rowing and in sprint canoeing. The South African team also featured past Olympic medalists, including swimmer Roland Mark Schoeman, who won a full set of medals in Athens, and long jumper Godfrey Khotso Mokoena

Do you need a Handyman Service Putney ?
We have spend 2 days in Streatham this week to bits and pieces for one of our existing clients. On the electrical side we have fitted new light switches and units and replaced bulbs. We have also carried out repairs to a faulty doorbell.
We then tiled the box unit in the bathroom and removed and resealed the edge of the bath.
We have investigated a condensation problem, applied filler to the wall along the stairs where a previous lodger was rather careless when moving furniture etc.
And finally in the kitchen we painted the door frame and installed a new mixer tab.

Our specialist team of theme designers will plan the party of your choice
Posted by admin in Marquee Hire on November 17, 2012
Most of us remember the idyllic summer wedding complete with marquee and the simple joys of drinking champagne outside in the sun, before being gently ushered into the pleasant shade of the marquee for a relaxed Wedding reception. The Marquee makes the wedding or party an occasion, people see a marquee and they hear the music and begin getting into the party mood, meeting friends and chatting to old acquaintances.
Children love playing on the lawn, dancers love to cool off by popping outside and the brides have the perfect fairy tale wedding whilst friends and family finish off the celebrations in the marquee after sending the happy couple off.
Freedom and flexibility Hiring a marquee for a wedding or event gives you the flexibility in terms of number of guests and allows a free range in terms of themes or decorations. If the bride wants cream then the marquee is cream, if the party has an African theme etc., the marquee offers the flexibility to be all things for all parties, much more so than the interior of a hotel.
PARTY PLANNING SERVICE
Party, party! Make your party special with starcloth roof in black or white (to create that winter look) Our specialist team of theme designers have had expertise in party planning service since 1991 when we started and have created such themes as a James Bond night and a Chinese dragon party.
