Hilary, and Assorted  Afrikaners...

I just contacted the world renowned Afrikaans linguist, Professor
Imaa  Nutcase, in order to get an exact translation of your
message.   HE said (paraphrasing), "This is an invitation for all
readers of her cleverly worded message to dine a home cooked meal
at  the lady's (That's YOU, Hilary)  home  tonite."  It appears
she's expecting quite a crowd!" <grinning, ducking & running>

WOWIE!  Thanks for the dinner invitation - I"m gonna make my plane
reservations right now!  See ya tonite.... and please cook my
steak med. rare!
