put your heads together


With only a month to go, all across the land matjies old and new are preparing for this year’s show ‘n tell. Sources tell us that some matjies have travelled to Japan to undergo gruelling training with the world champion air guitarist and have been living on two grains of sushi rice a day in the hope of being this year’s winner. While others have risked their lives and delved deep into the darkside of their armpits to bring you the surrealist magic show this side of the Klein Karoo. As we speak, one matjie is in a basement dusting off his grandpa’s harmonica and his tannie elsie’s broekies (don’t ask!) and another is building a cabaret stage with her writer’s blocks. So the question is... what have the rest of you freaks got up your sleeve?
