The first sunny day in many days has brought about Rayban Wayfarer lust. Can’t explain why, but a pair of red Wayfarers is high up on my wishlist. I know, I know, they’ve been in the limelight for a while now and yes, some dodgy celebs do like them, but I don’t care.

Stellar South African Writers to Visit Hong Kong
June 30, 2009 · Leave a Comment
Top South African writers André Brink, Mandla Langa and Nobel Prize winner, Nadine Gordimer, are set to come to Hong Kong for the 2010 Literary Festival, South Africa’s Consule-General for Hong Kong and Macau, Nomatemba Tambo, announced yesterday.
Brink, Langa and Gordimer will be the first ever African writers to take part in Hong Kong’s annual literary event. Their visits are part of a year-long programme of events organised by the South African Consulate-General to celebrate the 2010 Football World Cup.
Nadine Gordimer won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1991; Mandla Langa won the 2009 Commonwealth Writers’ Prize for Best Book, Africa with his novel The Lost Colours of the Chameleon.
Ms. Tambo also announced that Archbishop Tutu is to visit Hong Kong next year.
Looks like the 2010 Hong Kong International Literary Festival will be a sell-out!
