basis of 1 ordinary share for 1 preference share.  This conversion was          
approved by shareholders at the annual general meeting held on 24 October       
2001.                                                                           
     At the annual general meeting held on 24 October 2001, shareholders        
approved the cash issue of 380 000 shares at a price of R1,70 per share.        
Due to unforeseen circumstances the issue was not implemented during the        
year under review.  It remains the intention of the directors to increase       
the issued share capital by way of a cash issue.  Shareholders will be          
provided with the appropriate information on publication of the annual          
financial statements.                                                           
3.   Loan payable                                                               
     In anticipation of the increase in share capital referred to above,        
Messina Investments Ltd, a substantial shareholder advanced an amount of        
R560 978 to the company to enable it to increase its portfolio of listed        
investments.  The loan is unsecured and interest free.  No terms of             
repayment have been fixed but it is anticipated that the funds will be          
repaid within one year.                                                         
4.   Deferred tax                                                               
     With the introduction of Capital Gains Tax on 1 October 2002, the          
directors have provided for deferred tax on the capital profit earned on its    
listed investments in the period ended 31 March 2002.                           
5.   Income statement                                                           
     The income before taxation is significantly lower than in the prior        
year due to a significantly lower revaluation surplus.  In this regard          
shareholders` attention is drawn to note 7 below.                               
6.   Dividend                                                                   
     The directors do not recommend the payment of a dividend.                  
7.   The directors` valuation of the unlisted investment in Willoughby`s        
Consolidated Plc has not been revised.  The directors are continuing to         
closely monitor the operations of that company both in Zimbabwe and in the      
United Kingdom where the company owns substantial property interests.           
8.   The financial statements have been prepared in terms of Generally          
Accepted Accounting Practice.  The accounting policies applied are              
consistent with those applied in the comparative period.                        
9.   Audit review                                                               
     These preliminary financial statements have been reviewed by the           
company`s auditors, Light and Livingstone (Chartered Accountants (S.A.)),       
who have issued an unqualified report thereon.  Their report is available       
for inspection at the registered office of the company.
