I love my home cricket ground Newlands, but WOW St George’s Park looks magnificent tonight. And the vibe!!! How I’d love to have a chance to watch a game there. #SA20League

Newlands Cricket Ground looking magnificent yesterday. Still one of my favourite days of the year - day 1 of the New Years Test.

Nothing more relaxing than an afternoon in the Winelands. This is the vibe at the lovely Melfort restaurant at Marianne Wine Estate.
