I went to my Farewell in a Datsun 160U SSS. (Jol Mobile).


Your school had a standard nine farewell ??? wow progressive times.... LOL
Dish I was the oldest STD 6 Participant and they thought they would motivate me to leave earlier.

Cant believe the bullshit and wasting money on matric farewells. Larnie entrances, ten grand dresses, functions at hotels @ R150 per person e.t.c.

In my day ha ha, we'd just walk to the school hall, wade through the baloons, enjoy a curry n' rice and look forward to the after party. :lol:

A Pink Cadilac costs about R6000 an hour so dont even bother... :roll:

There are many more to choose from though.

Chopper ride is difficult and not very practical (dress, hair, bla bla bla)

Hope she has a ball!

I went to my Matric Dance in a maroon BMW 850i....very rare and very cool. (^^)

Oh thanks Alan - I actually have a friend who collects cars and has a number of beauts.... yes - why didn't I think of that... thanks for the idea. I know - I thought of the hair and she isn't as wild and adventurous as her mother - LOL.....

Ok - well I have to pay R450 for her, and R450 for her partner... the dress has cost R4500 (ok her dad has covered the dress for us)... her sister will pay for the nails... her gran will pay for the hair and that's about R1000 or so... there is still the shoes, the bag and the accessories.... now I'm trying to find a unique arrival.... and what will that cost.... so ya - it does cost a bloody fortune.... really...
anyhoo..... it's a once in a lifetime - right?
