By the way my hubby´s name is Serafim Silva with our lastaddress in Moshoeshoe Drive next to Neil Whittaker .. what lovely memories. Thanks so much :D
dude Thank you so much for putting this video on it nearly reduced me to tears I spent the happiest days of my life in Phikwe and would love to return My dad worked in the Power Station and we left 1977 I have fond memories and miss it terribly and would love the opportunity to go back and have one more look
thanks so much for letting me know that the video touched you like it did:) My dad Glenn worked at BCL from '73-'82, and I went to kopano from '73-'80. My name is Cameron Taylor and I lived at 179 notwane drive. My brothers name was Martin. We may have known eachother? I do plan on going back again. It was a year ago today that I was there, hopefully I'll be able to go back there in about six months.
