Nelson Mandela University distance learning

Has anyone from Durban enrolled in any distance learning courses at NMU?

Particularly with courses requiring in-person practicals/ examinations/ assessments. A friend is looking to do a PGCE there but is concerned with the amount of WIL training days (20 consecutive days, per semester), which can become problematic if you have a full-time job.

Is it worth it to use a firearm in self defence?

What has been your experience in using your firearm to defend yourself?

Specifically referring to people who have legal firearms and have used them in a self-defence situation. Typical scenarios:

• Removed from holster/ bag/ car etc. but not fired • Fired a warning shot • Shot at someone non-fatally/ fatally

Besides the responsibility of owning a firearm, the process of obtaining one and using it, can be lengthy and difficult. Unless your life is being specifically targeted (a hit for example), it is it really worth the hassle to use it, from a legal perspective?

Example: I'm being hijacked, hijacker wants the car + valuables. Is it worth it to use a firearm to prevent the hijacking

Cape Vidal entry fees

If you've been to Cape Vidal near St. Lucia during peak times, there is long line to enter the park - apparently cars are limited to 100 per day.

Has anyone used an online booking/ payment system?
