It's a pic of Johan Goosen aged 10 or so meeting JDV, contrasted with a pic of the pair from last week.

Cracking photo and story behind that. Any idea of the ages at the time? JDV must have been what, 23, 24?

JDV's parents should be proud. Very forward thinking of JDV to have such a young hero. I'm sure Goosen's parents are relieved now because there was a long time when they felt more than a little uneasy about a young man idolising a young boy.
