In 2003 I moved on to the Middelburg Observer, which gave me an opportunity to also contribute to other Caxton-owned titles, the Citizen, Daller and Mpumalanga Mirror. In 2006 I joined Media 24 daily tabloid, the Daily Sun and the following year as I was hired on permanent basis as their Mpumalanga correspondent.
