Cows for a cause!

Whilst in Coffee Bay I was alerted to a need. Jerry our local Xhosa tour guide would like to buy a wife someday. But he lacks cows. The going rate to buy a wife is 10 cows. He has only half a donkey and 2 chickens. Or so he said.

At first I thought "poor Jerry". Perhaps I should start a "cows for a cause charity".

If only he didn't work for a backpackers surrounded by cheap travelers. Then he might have a chance at saving the 3 cow deposit on his wife.

Then again. Maybe he's smart. And knows that he's better off without.
