Arthur Posted July 1, 2009 Report Share Posted July 1, 2009 That picture was so not taken in SA.1) They are actually cleaning up after themselves. Would not happen in SA2) They are far to pale.3) There is no downtown Jozi building that is that new and tidy. Without rubble in the corners.

Antoinette Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 Not in RSA mate.4) They are wearing nice high visibility vests. In South Africa you occasionaly see one bit then it is usually torn and so dirty it isn't refelective anymore.5) They are both working. In South Africa one will be leaning on his broom watching the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Check the paving stone widths at the van and pillars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alida Posted July 3, 2009 Report Share Posted July 3, 2009 AND - in Europe, they have such poles. NOT in SA. And the poles are removable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janneman Posted July 5, 2009 Report Share Posted July 5, 2009 According to Snopes:The actual location, as indicated by the street signs and other contextual clues, appears to be a building on Quay Street in Manchester:More important, though, is the fact that the bollards shown in the photograph appear to be of a type designed so that they can be removed and replaced with blanking caps (and thus the departure of the workmen's van is likely not as problematic as it might appear.

Gizmo Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 AND - in Europe, they have such poles. NOT in SA. And the poles are removable.I saw this some time ago - I agree that I doubt it is in SA.Just to point out that those bollards are most definitely available in SA and they are clearly not removable.Removable bollards either drop down vertically or they have hinge connection. In both cases there is a clearly visible locking system at the bottom. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
