THEY SAID IT

“They all thoroughly enjoyed their holiday and would be keen to return.” — Ria Mills, spokeswoman for the Mpumalanga Tourism Authority, after speaking to survivors of the horror bus crash in which 26 elderly British tourists and a South African died.

“How many of our poor black people have died in the taxis and buses on the freeways? Yet nothing has been said about them.” — Alice Dennett, mother of Reggie Dennett, the SA tour guide who died with the 26 Britons.
