What junk? PDF Print
Written by Staff Reporters   

Dear Sir,

 

Your newspaper has shown worthy expansion over the years. The aim would seem to offer a panorama of what there is on offer in several fields. To this end you have added a review of the wine and dine sector in the capital.

In a very recent issue, your correspondent visited the merry icon, Joe’s Beerhouse. Rather surprisingly, the artefacts on display received the accolade of “junk”.

In this day and age, there are a growing number of people, not only tourists, who appreciate artefacts fashioned in the pre-plastic era. More often than not such artefacts add character to a structure.

Joe’s Beerhouse is a dedicated tourist attraction and a “must” on any traveller’s itinerary.

Years ahead, Joe’s and its fascinating collection of artefacts may approach National Monument status. Southern Africa has numerous places where history has been written and which, thereby, have attractions which draw tourists. Joe’s Beerhouse and its assortment of yesteryear artefacts is surely one of those, that is apart from the beer and solid food.

Well-done Joe! Keep collecting those bits and pieces which others may donate or, perhaps quietly dispatch to you for safekeeping!

 

Regards

Resident
