    Notes:

    Gefortifiseerde witwyn

    Oupa Jol en Ouma Annie het op 'n keer in die Kaap gaan kuier en 'n vaatjie witwyn saamgebring plaas toe. Toe hulle dit proe was dit egter baie droog en suur, sodat hulle besluit om dit vir die arbeiders te gee, maar eers voeg hulle suiker by om dit darem meer drinkbaar te maak.

    Die ekstra suiker het natuurlik die gisproses 'n goeie hupstoot gegee en toe die volkies dit drink was die alkoholinhoud heelwat meer as wat verwag is. Dit het die aand gelei tot algehele chaos op die plaas.


    Die "nightcap"

    Toe generaal Jannie Smuts vrederegter vir die kontrei was het hy by geleentheid met 'n paar van die Engelssprekende Kabinetslede saam op die plaas gekuier en oorgeslaap.

    Hulle het die aand lekker gesels en tot laat om die koffiekan gekuier. Ouma Annie het vir die Engelsmans in die buitekamer slaapplek gereedgemaak.

    Toe hulle gereedmaak om te gaan inkruip, vra een van die manne vir oupa Jol vir 'n "nightcap." Hy verstaan verkeerd aan hierdie vreemde taal en vra vir Ouma of sy vir hulle 'n pot vir die nag ingesit het. "Maar natuurlik" stel sy vir oupa gerus en hy beduie vir die Engelsman dat die "nightcap" onder sy bed is.

    Die Engelsman was verbaas oor die ongewone plek waar sy drankie vir hom uitgesit is, maar die volgende oggend was Oupa se verleentheid groot toe die raaisel ontrafel en hy sy blaps agterkom.
