Phone rings.

Me:           Hello?

Secretary:    Hello Alex Robert Mugabe is here to see you.

Me:               [...]

Secretary:   Hello?

Me:               Robert Mugabe?

Secretary:   Yes. Can you come down?

Me:               Um, can you tell him I’m in a meeting?

Yes, not every day you get a phonecall like that. A man resembling a certain not-very-loved African dictator came to present me with a Nando’s Meal-for-6 voucher today, in honour of the new Meal For 6 promotion Nando’s is running. The site goes live at 4pm, so head on over to mealfor6.co.za for more details. And look out for the TV ad – starring our favourite dictator and 5 of his friends.

You can also win yourself a meal for 6. You just gotta tweet the names of 5 people (living or dead) that you would like to have dinner with and include the hashtag #mealfor6 and you’re entered.

Highlight of my day: when I did go down to meeting, secretary says to me “I’ve never seen Robert Mugabe in real life before, is that really him?”
