The Mercury

Daily Newspaper published in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal (1995 to date) - formerly the Natal Mercury (1852-1995).

Extracts of modern BMDs transcribed by Rita Quebbemann. These were originally posted on the Buitenposten mailing list and therefore translated into Afrikaans. After October 2012 extracts appear in English.

Earlier transcriptions by Tara Norton from the Natal Mercury can be found here.
