I found this story very good and thought I can share it.

One day a woman who ran the local beer shop decided she lacked customers, so she went to the bank of the river Umgeni, near Durban, and performed a ceremony to call upon the River Mother to bless her beer. She watched carefully and after a time found a piece of wood no bigger than a matchstick floating on the water. This she took the piece of wood home and placed it in the bottom of her beer. Then she made a fresh brew and poured it into the barrel. From that time onward, her show was always full of customers and the legendary fame of her beer spread far and wide. This attracted the attention of the police, and since brewing beer without a licence was illegal, the police invaded the premises to search for the illicit brew. They found the barrel and opened it, but all they found was a long snake that hissed at them. It was Mamalambo, protecting the women and her customers. When everyone returned after the police had left, the beer barrel was found to be full again and the dirnk even better than before.


I did found it very nice to hear unlike most of some of the other storys I had heard...
