Miranda That is something I would still love to do. It costs allot to do it here, but as soon as I have extra money, nothing is going to stop me. I did go and do the bungee swing at the mac mac falls in mpumulanga and It can become addictive.

What is your favorite hangover cure?

kbkbooks @kbkbooks (7022) • Canada 10 Feb 07

I love cold vegetable sticks, like carrots and celery if I have a hangover. They don't have any funny smell or taste so I can stomach them. They are cold and refreshing so they relieve my dry mouth.

fun with foods

Miranda Well I will be honest, my favourite hangover cure is orange juice. For some reason that is the only thing which makes me feel better and get me up and going soon. I think it is the vitamin c in it.

Miranda I love rodeo's. But we do not have it in our country. The closest i get to rodeo, is when a get on my youngsters (horses of course) most of them are fine, but you will always have that one horse, which is just a bit more of a challenge.
