They meet in Cape Town for the first time, and Kobus Moolman had just the day before launched his new poetry collection "Fall Risk".

We enter into their conversation halfway because they were so eargerly engaged into conversation from the first mimute that Morten Ranum only half an hour later remember to switch on the recording device.
