Being a grown up is hard, this is how I have found it…

The hilarious “Tannie Evita” is coming to PE!

Looking for plans this weekend? Look no further PE we have Pieter-Dirk Uys aka Evita Bezuidenhout lined up! She promises to shake your blues away with her brazen commentary on our political situation. Tannie Evita’s character has always reminded us with a chuckle, where we have come from as South Africans. She no doubt has a lot of new material up her sleeve, because of all the happenings of late – so it should be a good one!

Tannie Evita

“Evita Bezuidenhout and the Kaktus of Seperate Development” will be showing on the 22-24 February 2018. The show is said to be focused on the future of the ANC, the state of the nation and the capture of democracy. Tannie Evita is completely unabashed about ruffling feathers so there is sure to not be a topic that goes untouched. Lined up are her takes on the Van Riebeecks, Verwoeds, Bothas, Guptas, the Mandelas and most importantly the Zumas. A diet for Malema and not forgetting some love for her dearest Tutu.

Closely followed by another solo-show featuring Pieter-Dirk Uys as himself in “Echo of Noise”. Unequivocaly this show has left attendees astonished at the man behind the heels and make-up. Uys opens up and tells of his public and personal life, in an autobiographical one man memoir. Critics have called this show “truly inspirational” and “brilliant“. Among others he shares the story of his fathers death and German mothers suicide. Therfore giving us a peak into the life of man who chose the road less travelled.  Making this a not-to-be missed rendition. Enthusiasts can catch this show from 24-28 February 2018.

Tickets for either of the above mentioned shows can be purchased at your nearest Computicket. They will take both place at the Anthenaeum for R130 per person at 7:30pm on the dates respectively mentioned above.

Excitingly My Spreadsheet Brain has a chance for you to win tickets to Echo of Noise over here!

In the Meantime – So does Tannie Evita tickle your funny bone too? Share some of your memories with me in the comments!

Devotionals for couples: Saving your marriage before it starts

Life can get so busy and crazy, we often find less and less time to be quiet and pray with our significant others. I know from personal experience that committing to a daily devotional together can be quite daunting at first. We have found our rhythm now after 3 years of marriage! The “Saving Your Marriage Before it Starts” devotional by Drs. Les and Leslie Parrot was created with this in mind.

Things you probably didn’t know about car insurance…

As women, car insurance quotes is just one of the many admin jobs we end up being delegated with. Do you really know all there is to know, to get the most value out of your car insurance?

Up until we actually needed our insurance a few years back, I felt like we were just throwing money into the toilet every month for “in-case” something happens. Well let me just say -“in-case” happens a lot more than you think. So no, this isn’t a “how to get out of paying insurance” pitch. Rather, this is a “did you know?” kind of, “you will thank me later” pitch. Take it as advice from someone who has made the mistakes and lived to tell the tale…

Large sums of money withdrawn from your account without consent? Protect yourself from “Identity Theft”

Picture yourself getting a call from a debt collector. First of all ugghhhhh – as if you didn’t know that you haven’t paid that account yet. Except imagine that you didn’t – you actually didn’t forget to pay, or couldn’t pay. You didn’t even make the debt. Picture that debt collector, embarrassing you over the phone about debt and an account that you didn’t even create.

Money you owe that you in fact did not spend.
