{pp}New wage legislation governing minimum wages in the hospitality industry came into force on July 1st and it has not received a warm welcome in all quarters. Both the Restaurant Association of South Africa (RASA) and the South African Chefs Association (SACA) were not best pleased. This was less to do with the figures involved, although some claim they will either cut jobs or raise costs (or both), but more due to the fact that there was no communication or warning about the proposed changes from government. So, grumblers say, the industry could not plan for the changes as they were given only six weeks notice of the new legislation, which was announced in mid May.

{pp}In February 2006, a group of intrepid wine lovers destalked and stomped their way through a ton of grapes flown in from Meerendal Estate at the inaugural wine pressing festival held at The Pinotage Restaurant and Wine Cellar in Gauteng.

{pp}Children are supposed to have fun and have a care-free existence. Living in a crime infested country like South Africa however could leave you constantly living in fear for your life and those of your children. The recent spate of reports on missing and abducted children has yet again begged the question, could any of this have been prevented?
