After almost 40 years of being in our building next to the Union Buildings in Pretoria, we're finally moving to the old National Library Building in Pretoria Central.

We have forty years worth of valuable collections to move: anyone willing to come and give me and colleagues a hand to shift all this stuff?  :smile:
We shall meet in the place where there is no darkness.

Count me in!

Pretoria, Pretoria . . .

That's somewhere between Nashville and Bucksnort, TN - right?

Trevor, if you can supply a way for Poogie and I to get there we will be happy to help. I'll supply the required beer and pizza lunch break.

Or we could try using donkeys.



Doesn't look like that'll work too well.   :lookingup:

Wow 40 years of South African cinema ... what's that, like 6 films?

(I'm sorry it was there I had to take it.)

I'd be glad to help, send a ticket and I'll supply the rest.

Let's see: our cinema officially started in 1895 so [trevor counts on fingers] One, two, three, four..........yikes, no more fingers left.   :wink:

That's me to the top right of that picture, standing on the platform holding the stone while the others try and move it.
