Last year, our team visited Ukraine as the country continued its seemingly endless war with invading Russian forces. We spent time in Kyiv and surrounds and travelled to the now-defunct Chernobyl nuclear power plant, the scene of a devastating explosion in 1986. And amid the chaos, we met interesting people with fascinating – often tragic – stories to tell.

Van der Merwe is approached by SANRAL one day who want to build a new highway through his donkey farm. Van is really concerned with how his donkeys can get from one side of the farm to the other without having to cross the highway and risk being injured or killed. He is promised that they will build bridges the highway so that his donkeys can cross under the highway. Van agrees and gives them the go-ahead.
The highway is built and a year later the same rep goes to the farm to go see how Van and his donkeys are. He eventually finds Van under one of these bridges chipping away at the roof of the tunnel with a hammer and chisel.
\”Mnr Van de Merwe, what are you doing damaging the highway bridge?\”
