Five things you need to know about SA today
1. News 24 says SA’s banks have quietly reintroduced 100% home loans for the cheaper side of the residential property market. Read the story here.
2. And if you’re a lager lout but are into soccer, there’s a cheap wine targetting you in honour of 2010 under the Bafana Bafana brand. The wine comes from Northern Cape producers Oranjerivier Wine Cellars and Afriwines and will go for between R25 and R35. I can’t decide if this marketing genius or from the Far Side.

3. The sardines are making their way up the coast and are soon to hit East London so, East Coast folk, pack your binoculars in the cubby hole and keep an eye out for whales and dolphins. Read this interesting story about killer whales frolicking (with a dolphin carcass) off East London at the Daily Dispatch. Cool pic too!
4. IOL’s Babynet has a fun story about kids bonding more with TV characters like Bob the Builder than their own parents. My child’s favourite show is Louis, the amazing artistic rabbit who draws things, so I guess that’s OK. Read the story here.
5. And on serious matters, Business Day reports that the Judicial Service Commission says it will start its hearing of the dispute between Western Cape Judge President John Hlophe and the judges of the Constitutional Court from scratch after deciding not to appeal against a high court order. Read it here. You won’t be able to escape your fate forever, Mr Judge President.
