"Wow.. wat 'n fantastiese tydjie. Eugene en Alta, jul is voorwaar besonderse mense. ons kon nie vir 'n beter plekkie gevra het om te rus oppad huis toe. Alta, jou kos is vyfster gehalte, en jul gasvryheid is uit die boonste rakke. Eugene, die moeite wat jy vir Jacques gemaak het word hoogs op prys gestel. Jul huisie is vol afrikaner geskiedenis en my man het skoon liries geraak. Jul sal ons defnitief weer sien. Weereens dankie vir die twee dae."
