So when the recruiting truck came from over the border I went to them and they put me on a
scale and listened to my chest and made me run up and down a ladder for ten minutes. Then a
man said that I would make a good miner and they made me write my name on a piece of paper.
They asked me whether I had ever been in any trouble with the police. That was all. In
Johannesburg they spent two weeks training us. We were all quite fit and strong, but nobody
could be sent down the mines until he had been made even stronger. So they took us to a
building which they had heated with steam and they made us jump up and down on the benches
for four hours each day.

I’m glad to say that all the pets
received a lot of attention from me
on the afternoon of that fateful day. The kittens were fluffed up, Rags the puppy was stroked and the hamsters were allowed to run along the counter. I even attempted a conversation with the parrot. It was suddenly clear where my destiny lay – I was going to run a pet shop, like my father before me. In a few years the sign above the door would no longer read ‘G. Lennox’ but ‘R. Lennox’. Here was my future! It would no longer matter that I was not allowed to have pets of my own because all the pets would be mine one day.
