A request from Billy Suter, Art Editor of The Mercury, reminds us that the 2010 World Cup is not all that far away in terms of major planning.

Billy has been asked to do an entertainment feature for an upcoming Mercury supplement about what Durban seems likely to have to offer 2010 world cup soccer fans in the city, in terms of entertainment or culture.

Should anyone have events planned, please email them to csmart@iafrica.com and I will pass them on to Billy Suter.
