Hi Andrew

Even further to the south in what is the Transkei region of the Eastern
Province, the South Nguni - of whom the Xhosas, Pondo and Thembu are
well-known sections - have had close contact with the British ever
since the first settlers arrived in Delagoa Bay ( now Port Elizabeth) in
1820.

Delagoa Bay is around Maputo, the sea at Port Elizabeth is ALGOA Bay.
(Both names refer, of course, to GOA in India.)

Oops, missed that one in the transcribe and to think I live in Port
Elizabeth :o)
Thanks for your input Andrew. Apologies to the list for the "gremlin"

Best wishes
