If you need a website for your business I heartily recommend our Rapid website marketing club.  You can visit the site for this at www.rapidwebsite.co.za

On a fishing note; The sea is a brown stew at the moment, but the good news is that the Karanteen are back, in spite of the mud, so maybe fishing in the Port Shepstone area is about to pick up.

Life’s a Beach!  It is! Don’t listen to the doomsayers.  South Coasters are tough.  We are used to adjusting to difficult times.  It’s not the difficulties that are important.

Christmas is coming!  The shopping days are getting shorter & The Life’s a beach team are working like demons to get life’s A Beach together and now the new and exciting Beachcomber Directory is coming together very well and promises to be an excellent first edition.  Both websites are cooking, particularly The Beachcomber, thanks to the great support we are getting from the Southcoasters.  We are even getting enquiries from Gauteng now.

Remember, whatever you need, whatever you want,  you will find it in the Beachcomber.  You can look at the site at www.thebeachcomber.co.za  From a pair of socks for Grandpa to a holiday at a relaxing holiday resort, its all there.

We have a fantastic range of restaurants on the South coast; there are scenic tours to occupy you throughout the whole holiday season.

Life’s A Beach!  There is no recession on the South Coast!  Turn the formula around and you can turn hard times into boom times.  South Coasters are tough.  We have had our share of disasters and we are still here. Difficulties are just a learning opportunity for making ourselves more efficient  and cost effective. “When the going gets tough the tough get going”

That’s enough waffle from me now.  See you on the beach
