Bantu is all Greek to me.


Pickle and Pearl on their quest for Earths defences have moved up country in Africa and found themselves (Actuaaly they weren't lost) among a crowd? of Zulus. As they discovered Zulus are avery complicated nation with a long and varied heritage and history. This may be followed up in Wikipedia where you will find that Zulus are the largest group of citizens in Africa. The area this photo. was taken is called Shakaland after the greatest leader of Zulus from the eighteenth century. Look it up. Here you see out intrepid explorers talking in Bantu with some representatives of the Zulu race.
LITTLE FLY upon the hut/ It's not long now when you'll go 'phut'/I know that you can stand the heat/ You know that I won't be beat.
