New Bottle Stores For St Francis Bay? Notes from the editor
The rumours are running thick right now, and what is a little village without rumours? As the town blossoms and swells with development and new builds all over the place, there must also be an increase in business and services.
The best-kept and worst-kept secret in the village has to be the building next to the petrol station, but this is what we got a few days ago.
“So, do you know what is going to come up here, next to the KFC?”
“Ja, I know, but I’m not really allowed to talk about it.”
“Ok, but ignore that. I’m not a journalist or something. Is it a food store? Like a grocery store or something else?”
“It’s a convenience store. A petrol station convenience store.”
“Ah, ok. Got it. But it’s quite a big space for a convenience store.?
“And a coffee shop.”
“What sort of coffee shop?”
“I don’t know. Maybe a Mug? And a bottle store.”
“No way! A bottle store? That’s pretty funny.”
“Ja. There are already two in town, but apparently, that’s not enough.”
(laughter)
Around the back
“Where’s it going to be?”
“Around the back.”
“And parking?”
“Around the back. Plenty of parking there for a bottle store.”
“And parking for the other stores?”
“Plenty of parking around here. They are going to open up a few more bays over here and over there.”
“Are you worried about a bottle store here?”
New Bottle Stores
“No, not at all. Why? We have one here already, just down the road. Why would this one make a difference? If people want to buy dops, they will buy them. I heard there is even another bottle store coming to town. Way down the other side.”
“No, that can’t be true.”
“Down there by the fire station.”
“No. I don’t think they can do that?”
“Why not? And a Wimpy.”
(much laughter)
“Now you’re talking kak.”
“Ja, Only joking. Not Wimpy. It’s a Steers.”
(more laughter)
Actually, I don’t know anymore. This place has got so many mense now. They probably want another little bottle store down there.”
“True that. When will it end? Do you know why this light is flashing on my dash?”
“It means your car needs a service, my bru. Do you want a receipt?”

Underdogs Take Over on Day 3 of the 2024 Surf City El Salvador ISA World Masters Surfing Championships
Excellent heats from Team SA’s Gary Van Wieringen and Tyrell Johnson. Surf City El Salvador – a solid six-to-eight foot swell poured into El Sunzal for day three of the 2024 Surf City El Salvador ISA World Masters Surfing Championship (WMSC). The powerful groundswell was consistent all day, providing epic waves for the completion of Main Round 2 in all six divisions and Repechage Round 2 in four divisions, along with Main Round 3 in men’s Masters (over 40) and Grand Masters (over 50).Excellent heats from Gary Van Wieringen (RSA) and Daniel Garcia (ESP) lead men’s Grand Masters action.
2011 Masters Silver Medalist Gary Van Wieringen (RSA) claimed another solid victory today. Surfing in his first of two heats today, the 51-year-old matched his day one performance with another excellent heat total, 17.97, which included a 9.07 and an 8.90. Van Wieringen’s huge numbers left his competitors requiring a two-wave combination to defeat him; a lineup that included two fellow WMSC medalists, both former WSL Championship Tour (CT) surfers, Jojo de Olivença (BRA) and Mike Latronic (HAW), the defending Kahunas Gold Medalist, as well as Masahisa Sakamoto (JPN).

“I was looking so forward to coming back,” Van Wieringen said. “Everyone knows it’s been 11 years since the Masters have had an event, so when I heard Fernando called it on, we were all so stoked. For me, it’s always been such a great opportunity. I never really did many international events when I was younger. It was always just the local ones in South Africa. So now, being back for my third Masters, and even the first two, just to compete against some of the bigger names, I’ve been so grateful to come up against them.”Men’s Masters fired up by Tyrell Johnson (RSA) and Gilbert Brown (CRC)
Another South African, Tyrell Johnson (RSA), showcased his peak performance in men’s Masters Main Round 3 as the underdogs take over. The 43-year-old’s deep bottom turns, and huge carves earned him a 9.00 and 8.17, along with two additional backup waves that would have secured his victory. “The waves at the moment are reminding me of back home at Nahoon Reef,” Johnson said. “Just the deep bottom turns, big carves. I really feel like I’m back at home. Stoked. Really, happy.” Johnson’s 17.17 heat total was the highest of the day in men’s Masters, though Gilbert Brown (CRC) picked up the highest single wave score of the division so far earlier in the day, a 9.17. Brown advanced with Johnson to be one heat away from a medal in the final Main Round heat.
