Cupid visits Millennium Jazz

Interested parties will get a free bottle of Champaign with a dinner table and Incognito, and African jazz CDs courtesy of Kgalagadi World. In the backdrop Shima, and Jazzy Jay will provide smooth jazz tunes. All this for P50.
“We want people to re-ignite their love. We want them to renew their vows and become more intimate. It’s a day for family, kids, and friends to rediscover the meaning of love. As a lot of us have vowed in the New Year’s resolutions to love more, this will be a perfect day to work on that,” said Shima Monageng.
He added, “We also want to add more value to Valentine’s Day, then it would not feel like it is just a commercial gimmick, two people exchanging flowers and chocolate, or the sceptics may be able to join in the bandwagon of love just as they celebrate Christmas Day. The 21st century society needs love especially in these days of problems and related stress.”For bookings contact Bertha @ 71883561.
