@biennehuisman thats so cool -is Ronnie’s Sex Shop still a thing in Barrydale?
Sounds like there is a story behind this🤣
@Alet oh wow which small town?
@AngelaDaniels Patensie potatoe farmers? Whats up with them? Pray tell.
This is a part of the country I wish I could visit more. It’s so beautiful there.
It’s up for sale - R17.9 mill - for the property plus Ronnie. It’s for sale with him having lifetime rights to live there
Ask Bienne… she seems to know something
I watched a reality show last week that said the Northern Cape is the Area 69 of South Africa…![]()
I’m actually not sure. In the centre of town it’s really not a lot at all, but it seems like there are a greater number of people living in the townships. So it honestly depends in what area you stay. But with how quiet the town is, it’ll feel like it has a population of 50.
Oh also interesting fact: everyone goes home between 12pm and 2pm to eat and stuff. So the town is especially quiet then. We arrived during that time and thought a zombie apocalypse had taken place
12pm - 2pm! Count me in. I will get there before you because my retirement date is way closer than yours Reid ![]()
Don’t google Area 69🤣
Seriously??? They selling Ronnie with the Sex SHop? So tell us exactly what a potential new owner would actually be buying beyond a bar?
Okay, I just googled ‘Area 69’
Postmasburg ![]()
I feel like Daily Maverick needs a bar… we should put out some feelers please.
@Alet Law proud product of Posmasburg. Love it! From small towns come great minds!
Can we get a story on this?
A whole lot of nothing (vast Karoo land), the bar and Ronnie who lives on the property. You considering it, Heather??
She could only be talking about KZN ![]()
Also to the writers… How big a factor is the local municipality in the satisfaction and quality of life of your small towns? I.e. do people prosper because or despite of their local government?
