I don't do people but walking through Franschhoek before breakfast one morning in summer (the weather is always sublime) these young ladies passed me by on the other side of the road. They were laughing happily and looked so smart I couldn't resist turning round after them and asking if they would mind if I took their picture. "Certainly Sir" the one with the badge replied. They did not need any placement, they just stood perfectly.
