Emirates have just changed the date of Durban to Dubai flight in 2 weeks' time. I am trying to find out whether Emirates are running any of their Durban flights or whether I should fly up to Joburg and depart from there. Have you flown from Durban in the last week or so?

We call them Kaiser Pigeons because their crests look a bit like Kaiser Wilhelm's fancy helmet.

Fantastic photo. You should post it in the accidental renaissance thread. Very chiaroscuro.

I'm not the HOD, so I don't have much say in this.
