BOOK OF THE MONTH

HOOKED - by Melinda Ferguson

What can be more difficult than breaking a drug habit? Simple: Keeping clean. Melinda Ferguson follows her powerful drug memoir Smacked with this brutally honest account of her post-addiction addictions - from self-help fads, to Oprah, to 12 step meetings, to men, to Facebook.

How does an addict deal with a world in which instant gratification has become the norm? How does an addict break the cycle of use and abuse that has been their life for so many years?

How does an addict balance kids, a career and a relationship while fighting to stay clean? How does an addict fill the hole in the soul? In this no-holds-barred account of her life after drugs, Melinda Ferguson reveals just how easy it is for recovering addicts to slip back into the patterns of behaviour that led them to use in the first place.

Provocative and often darkly humorous, she takes us to those 'dangerous' places that all addicts battle to avoid and shows us just what it takes to come back from the brink. To purchase Melinda's book, please email info@conferencespeakers.co.za

Once the exhilarating helicopter flight to the top of this mystical mountain is completed, the player is treated to the golfing view of all time – miles of African bushveld stretching as far as the eye can see, a vista of epic proportions, and nestling at the foot of the mountain is the green, contoured and shaped like Africa.  There is nothing like it anywhere else on planet golf!

River Place Country Estate is a magnificent new venue that takes full advantage of the magnificent mountain vistas, river views and landscaped indigenous gardens, all combining to provide an idyllic experience. Whether it’s a romantic weekend away, a high-level business conference or product launch, a wedding or a picnic, an intimate lunch or a family celebration, we all have a vision of “wither we desire to go”.

At River Place Country Estate, the impressive setting and facilities, together with our meticulous attention to detail and emphasis on stylish sophistication and timeless elegance will help you achieve your vision.

A place with a profound sense of peace, River Place makes one feel as if you’re far removed from the city - the venue is, however, extremely accessible and is close to the major business centres of Gauteng.

Since its establishment in 1989, Rovos Rail has earned an international reputation for it’s truly world class travel experiences. Rovos Rail has capacity for up to 78 people in luxury sharing accommodation. Let us arrange a charter to Dullstroom or Pilanesburg for that special launch or incentive getaway. Or simply book a dinner run with a difference.

An enthusiastic team of chefs is responsible for overseeing the very important task of ensuring guests every need is catered for, while considerable thought and meticulous planning goes into making up the menus. Unlike many of the great trains of the world, travellers are on board the trains for several days at a time, requiring a much wider selection of meals. There's an accent on fresh local ingredients, and traditional dishes such as game are a specialty. Every morning there's a full breakfast with dishes cooked to order. A selection of cold meats, croissants, pastries, fresh fruit, yoghurts, cereals and preserves make up a tempting breakfast buffet. For lunch and dinner there is a starter and a choice of fish, meat or vegetarian dishes, followed by a tempting dessert and are complemented by a selection of excellent South African wines. All meals are served in one sitting only in the charming Victorian atmosphere of the Dining Cars. Many of the passengers aboard the Pride of Africa enjoy the formality of fine china, crisp linen and silver, and dress accordingly.During the day dress is more casual, with cool, comfortable clothes and hats recommended for the excursions, especially in the game reserves where it can be very hot. The Observation Car seats 32 passengers and is positioned at the rear of the train. At the centre of the train we have, when numbers dictate, a non-smoking Lounge Car, which seats 26 passengers in comfort. In maintaining the spirit of travel of a bygone era, there are no radios or television sets onboard.
