A while back I brought you a wonderful copy of someone’s passport who ended up with the name “TWO RAND.”
That was good, but I fear this might be better.

VICTOR “DONT-WORRY” SAMBU
Aah, it’s just too awesome for words.
You can almost imagine what happened. Victor went to Home Affairs (probably in the old days) and was addressed by a large Afrikaans man who said to him, “What is your name, booi?!”
“Veektah,” would have been Victor’s reply.
“And what is your second name,” the man would have asked.
“Sambu,” replied Victor.
“No, boy, that is your fokken surname – what is your SECOND name!” yelled the Afrikaans gentleman.
So then Victor, perhaps a tad confused (and frightened, let’s face it) would have wanted to alleviate the man’s stress and just said, “Don’t Worry.”
“Don’t Worry?” asked the big guy.
“Yeees,” replied Victor.
“FINE!” chuckled the gent to himself as he signed and sealed Victor’s future right there and then!
And that, my friends, is pretty much exactly what happened on that fine day.
That brings the end of today’s lesson.
Goodbye.
