The birthplace of Dr Chris Barnard in Beaufort-West.He did the first heart transplant on the 3rd of December 1967.They have a museum here,dedictaed to him.Pictured are his missionary fathers house and the church.Since this was a public holiday,the museum was closed !!!
 Due to the nature of my work,I was very interested to see this...... I could have cried !!! Anyway,will see it next time !!

I think the name Mr Panerai should be reserved for Mr Johann Rupert.If it was not for him,buying the Panerai brand into his Richemont/Vendome stable,Panerai may have gone on into oblivian.Lost.I dont know how many know that. to him !!!BTW,I now found out that those cars I pictured are only those on display at the moment.They get rotated from a pool of around 200 cars in his collection.
