This is an age-old rivalry, much like that between lions and hyenas. When asked in private, under solemn oath, most Joburgers will admit that there is actually no competition, hence over the December holidays, Jo’burg is a ghost town and Cape Town is packed!

1) It’s so dry here! (Queue nose bleed)
