Hi Joe,

Thank you for your response, yes very early days.  I was hoping
that were other options.

According to co.za terms and conditions

Applicant hereby irrevocably represents, warrants and agrees that:
5.1.3 	it has a bona fide intention to use the Domain Name on a regular
basis on the Internet;

So is parking a domain in hope of a future sale a valid use case 
according to the T&Cs ?  Does putting up an adwords portal on the site
(while waiting for a sale) make it valid (more so).

Am I just grasping at straws here?

Regards,

- Jaco
