After this morning's email from Bob and the following trail, I happened to see 
this at lunchtime:

"In 2009 Britain revoked South Africa's visa-free status amid concerns about 
the ease with which foreigners could obtain south African passports and corrupt 
home affairs officials."

From The Telegraph in the UK:  
www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/southafrica/10069229/South-Africa-considers-80-visa-for-Britons-as-diplomatic-tit-for-tat-escalates.html<http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/africaandindianocean/southafrica/10069229/South-Africa-considers-80-visa-for-Britons-as-diplomatic-tit-for-tat-escalates.html>.

I wonder what the foreigners do with the corrupt officials they obtain.

Cheers

Nick
