I always compare S.A. with a Faberge egg...beautiful on the outside, empty on the inside and VERY FRAGILE.

..actually, the Fabergè eggs were never empty. They always contained a little 'surprise' bauble or two.

a 'Kinder Uberraschungs ei' exactly like that!

Carl Fabergé created the most amazing kitch for the rich, some of those eggs contained priceless jewels...little ornaments, diamond encrusted hairclips and broaches..little golden birdies that sing when wound up...

A few years ago they started making them again. I know in Cape Town there was the Marvol Meuseum, owned by some Russian millionair and he was selling them...cost a freeking fortune in Rands as you can imagin.
