Howsit (The South African salutation)

Hey guys!
Recently arrived in the UK from sunny South Africa. I am busy building up my new PC (thanks OCUK) and will be jamming some BFV on it when its up and running.
Cheers

Welcome. I am new too this forum. How do you like the weather here?

Arriving in Summer/Autumn was fantastic. Heading into winter, despite the darkness, has been alright so far ... guess I need to wait for the real cold!

Hello, hi, howzit. Another Saffa here. Going on 20 years since I moved here from Durbs. You'll get used to the place

Hi there! I am certainly hoping so. Are you missing sunny, warm Durbs at the moment?

Pretty sure we used to spell it Howzit *z not s* ... but that was when I was back home! Welcome, am new here too!

I've come across both spellings in my time. I don't know which is correct ...

Greetings from another SA person

Cheers guys! Good to see some fellow Saffas.

Whether we'll get real cold or not is another matter - last few years have mostly been relatively mild and rainy compared to winters 20+ years back.

I am happy if no real cold comes ...
