Leading South African comedian David Kau takes fellow funny man and filmmaker Kagiso Lediga down memory lane as he turned 42.
Taking to Twitter on Wednesday Kau wished his colleague and friend well, and true to his humorous nature, he took the opportunity to poke fun at Lediga, reminding him of his first car, a “yellow station wagon”
Sharing the images of the duo at the "Bantu Hour" studio, Kau wrote: “Happy birthday @KagisoLediga. In 1997/8 you bought a yellow station wagon - Cash! You drove it all the way from CPT Gardens to Woodstock, on the N2 highway, in 1st gear! 1st time driving & absolutely no license. You are definitely meant to be alive today Son!!!
