4th October 2011

Another pretty crappy day, trying to fathom people. Guess I been doing that since 5.36 last Wednesday.............

This is the darkest day - Tutu centre

The Dalai Lama applied for a visa to South Africa in August to attend the birthday celebrations of Archbishop Emeritus Desmond Tutu, a friend and fellow Nobel Peace Prize winner, on Friday.
But on Monday, the South African government had yet to announce a decision, prompting speculation it would refuse him entry for fear of offending China.
AFP reported on Tuesday that he had cancelled his trip.
It quoted the Dalai Lama's office in India as saying: “His Holiness was to depart for South Africa on October 6, 2011 but visas have not been granted yet.”
