Rules for festive �spongers�

Festive is probably the only time when we have an excuse to get ‘tjatjarag'. We blow large amounts of money on shopping and travelling. We also gorge on expensive food and down copious amounts of liquor. Some people wind up with smashed heads or written off cars, after hitting a cow or veering out of their driving lanes because they developed Dutch confidence, and imagined they were Michael Schumacher.

Others might bag themselves a holiday fling, only to end up with itchy nether regions in January, after the “hot lover” has left them with a dose of makhekhenene. 

With all the bonuses and loans, you are guaranteed a lot of excitement, jubilation and debauchery this festive period. During holiday time, alcohol always flows like the River Nile, and the level of imbibing would put even red-faced sailors to shame. After all, as some say: it’s the “silly” season.
