Platteland party animals

My good friend Les Bush is, at 60-plus, the Eternal Party Animal. In the words of some T-shirt bard, Les "fears no beer". And he treats Jack Daniels with scant respect. But when I invited Les down to our new home in the Karoo Heartland town of Cradock, he thought he’d spend a few days of peace, quiet and deep-navel contemplation in Meerkat Country, writes Chris Marais.
