Phuthu Stay Phut, Don't go!

Some say a glass of red wine a day will keep the doctor at bay. If you want to test this theory, I can’t think of a better time to do it than on a chilly winter’s evening.

 Did you know?

• Pinotage is a uniquely South African wine variety developed by crossing Pinot Noir and Cinsault?
• South Africa has the longest wine route in the world, the R62 wine route?

I hate chasing payments but I do have to do it from time to time Arrrgh!  Agreed, some people just honestly forget to pay and then they need a little reminder (which works wonders) but others just ignore the requests outright. I find it difficult to understand because I always make a point of paying people on time. The way I see it is that if someone has “delivered the goods” and you’re happy with the product or service, then settle the invoice within the payment terms stipulated. Conversely, if there are any snags, don’t pay until you’re happy with the final product. But more often than not, it’s the businesses that have lived up to their part of the deal that fail to get paid. Unprofessional and rude. Why should people have to hound someone for a payment?  Be fair when you do business and settle invoices when they’re due!
