I was summoned to the Stellenbosch police station to give a sworn statement on the crash in which we were involved. The court will use the statements from both drivers, photos which I'll provide, eyewitness accounts, and constables' reports to decide if anyone will be charged in connection with the smash.
Tracy went to the doctor today for X-rays. She learned that her tailbone was broken in the accident. No wonder it hurts so much! According to the doc, it is a minor fracture, and it should heal in a couple weeks.
Mark played cricket yesterday after school with the Rhenish mini-cricket team, which he wants to join. He learned that batting in cricket is very different from batting in baseball. And bowling (in cricket) is very different from pitching (in baseball).
Finally, a strong South-Easter blew today. After a particularly stiff gust at 10 PM, the power went out. I was just initiating a Skype teleconference. At least the wind is not as bad (so far) as the record South-Easter in 1936, which lasted 15 days.
