D\u00edt was die lekker daarvan. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Al kon ons nie \u2019n Bok-oorwinning vier nie, kon \u2019n mens weer saam met ander sing, skreeu en juig; kon die Meksikaanse golf \u2019n rondte of drie in \u2019n ampertjies stampvol stadion maak; kon \u2019n mens byderhand en gewillig wees om vir \u2019n groepie mense \u2019n foto te neem sodat almal saam in die prentjie is, ook die ou wie se foonkamera ingespan word; was daar die vermaak van die man \u2019n paar rye voor jou wat s\u00f3 dans dat hy later sy eie gehoor het en ook die laaitie hier agter jou wat elke nou en dan roep: \u201cSit my op, coach, ek\u2019s reg!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die Springbokke se krag\u00admeting teen Wallis die af\u00adgelope naweek in die Toyota-stadion het in \u2019n nare stukkie geskiedenis ontaard, maar dit sal terselfdertyd onthou word as die dag toe Bloemfonteiners weer skouer aan skouer in di\u00e9 stad kon \u201ccheer\u201d terwyl twee groot spanne rugby jol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ons het mekaar in die rye raakgeloop en heerlik gekuier terwyl ons wag, vertel die stad se mense. Ek het in di\u00e9 een vasgeloop. Daardie een in die skare was sowaar op TV, het jy gesien? <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Een besoeker aan die stad vertel hoe welkom hy gevoel het tussen bedagsame vreemdelinge op die paviljoen, by die badkamers en selfs waar die rokers eenkant gaan staan het. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ons Bloemfonteiners kan \u2013 en gaan ons hierdie week weer s\u00f3 maak?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dis minimark-tyd, \u2019n unieke geleentheid om ons in \u2019n kunstefees-voorsmakie te verlustig. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nee, dis nie die Vrystaat Kunstefees soos jy hom al die jare in Julie leer ken het nie. Met ander woorde, as die hoofkampus van die Universiteit van die Vrystaat dalk nie so bedrywig lyk as wat jy verwag het nie, of as die aantal stalletjies of vertonings jou koud laat: Die bekende lekkerte van \u2019n volledige feesaanbieding l\u00ea vir ons in Oktober voor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Dit is dan dat die Vrystaat Kunstefees se hooffees vir vanjaar aangebied sal word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ook hier, met die winteraanbod, kry ons die kans om van die gaafste dinge in die lewe skouer aan skouer met ander Bloemfonteiners en besoekers aan die stad te geniet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gaan stap \u2019n bietjie tussen ander mense in die sonskyn rond. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Eet \u2019n ietsie wat maar net nie op enige ander plek so lekker smaak soos wanneer dit by \u2019n kosstalletjie berei word nie. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kry jou sit vir \u2019n vertoning en lag, of huil, met oorgawe saam met die vreemdeling langs jou. Gesels met daardie einste vreemdeling oor die vertoning terwyl julle n\u00e1 die tyd uitstap, ongevraagd en oorbekend asof julle al jare lank vriende is wat di\u00e9 soort ding gereeld saam doen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gaan sit langbeen op \u2019n lappie wintergras, ontspan, en maak asof niks of niemand in die w\u00eareld enigiets meer van jou verwag nie \u2013 vir daardie rukkie, ten minste.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Die grootste lekkertes kan boonop nie eens voorspel word nie, soos gemoedelikheid ten spyte van \u2019n geskied\u00adkundige nederlaag of watter ou bekende jy op pad terug motor toe gaan raakloop op die minimark.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Mag jy vriendelik verras word.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
