I shall never forget the (young) barman in a motel in Musina many
years ago,
who, after taking my order for a pink G&T came back after 5
minutes
searching, with the announcement that he couldn't find a pink gin!
Only
white, meneer. Luckily the motel manager was with me, and he
'gently'
explained what a pink gin was.

The main reason I believe that story is because it's happened to me
before. In Bronkhorstspruit.

I once stopped for lunch at a cafe in Marintal, where the menu had "Rice (or
something else)"
