10 Things we've learnt about South Africans during the Rugby World Cup ๐๐ฟ๐ฆ๐:
1. Racism is an ongoing struggle within our country, but let another nation accuse one of ours of a racial slur and collectively we're ready to pounce #Kant
2. Bongi is one of the 44 South Africans who still speak Afrikaans #JaCharlize
3. Similarly, accuse us of not deserving the win on a public platform and 62 million of us are coming at you in all 12 official languages #EvenSignLanguage
4. Stadium lights get dimmed for the pyrotechnics show and South Africans worldwide assume Cyril took loadshedding to Paris #WeKantBelieve ๐ฆ๐ฏ
5. We're equally confused with Jacques and Rassie's light show because we've forgotten what to do when traffic lights are working ๐ฆ๐จ
6. If you want to really make us cross... make us wear turquoise instead of green and gold ๐๐
7. We're tired of being called resilient, but in the moments when we have Zero F's left to give.... the Springboks give us a Faf and we find reason to believe again โค๏ธโ๐ฉน
8. We're so used to receiving kak news that when something positive happens we demand a public holiday to commemorate it #FamilyMeeting
9. We dare you to find a cooler captain #BeLikeSiya
10. Some may have made tough decisions to leave our beautiful country, others have made tough decisions to stay and fight for her... but no matter where we are - we are family ๐๐ It's like the sibling relationship where we bicker and argue amongst ourselves, but let someone else insult us and we're defending like Pieter-Steph du Toit in the final.
We have so many reasons to be proud ๐ฟ๐ฆ! Not just of the Springboks but of our people who have united and supported, of our local brands and companies who have brought the gees and of our schools and parents who have encouraged the next generation to support and cheer for each other! We're leading from the bottom up ๐ฟ๐ฆ๐๐๐
@debra_churchill@IATA Thanks ๐ I tried calling before emailing and they just said I needed to wait ๐คฆ๐ฝโโ๏ธ with no indication of how long it will take.
@IATA are you able to help me with a complaint against #GoToGate. Iโm struggling to get a refund on a flight that was booked through them and cancelled by them. They are not responding to emails.
