Happy Birthday Madiba!
Today see's the 88th birthday of Nelson Mandela, not only the most famous South African, but quite literally the father of our nation.Its a wonderful age, for anyone, but considering the life that he has had to endure, the times he has had to suffer through, we can only wish him all the peace and happiness during the twilight years of his life. Time to spend with his lovely wife, his children, grand-children and great grand-children.
Happy birthday Madiba!
Watch Madiba's message to the leaders of the G8 last year - they're meeting again at the moment - and I wish that they would listen to the wise words of an old man!
