A few minutes after 7am this morning in the Saint George Cathedral my dear friend Desmond Tutu called upon me to congratulate me with my birthday.
He took his time to introduce me to the congregation and the many guests and shared with the them that I had only turned 22 years. (sorry Arch 62, born in 1948)
He started to tell who I was and what I was doing when he looked up and said, “Harold you can tell it much better, so please share with them what MKI is doing in South Africa.”
My gift was a copy of his latest book published together with his daughter Mpho Tutu with the following inscription:
“Harold, Happy Birthday, God bless you, Desmond Tutu, 8-10-2010, Cape Town”
I was accompanied by Johan Neppelenbroek, the well known Dutch Chef with one Michelin Star, in the process of opening a restaurant at Longridge Winery in Stellenbosch and Kirsty Hunt, MKI’s Executive Director for Southern Africa and her husband Ian.
