Of rAge and Cognac

The best place to take a pre-teen boy is the largest computer, gaming and technology show in Africa. Right! Well my feet are now sore after spending the entire day there watching Matthew enjoy himself playing games and excitedly showing me his Christmas wish list.

Later on, in the evening, Matthew and I joined Paulo, Tina, Magda, Martin, Daniel and Mona for dinner at Lucios Pizzeria, our favourite dive. Dinner at Lucios is as always a wonderful experience and being month end booking well in advance is important and being so popular parking is always problem. But at Lucios we enjoy good home style Italian cooking at an affordable price. Thank you Bimba and the staff at Lucios for continuing what Claudio started. It is one place in Johannesburg that we have to bring visitors to.
