In Cape Town in South Africa, there's a wine estate where they employ around 2,000 ducks that every morning they walk from their little duck homes all the way to the vineyard. The ducks spend a full day there, just eating all of the worms and all of the pests.

Other times Cape Town came up

  3. The only reason the match ended was the ship that the English team were booked onto was due to leave South Africa. In fact, it had already left. They were in Durban, I think. It had already left Durban. They said, oh, it's fine. We'll just get a train to Cape Town. Let's just keep playing a couple more days and see if we can finish the match. They still didn't finish it. It was still a draw. I think they ended the practice off.
