will be excellent mate although it's winter down there now

make sure you get plenty of pics for us

when i was in SA we were based in springbok, just below the orange river border with namibia. we went as far as the border crossing one day, but had some chinese with us that did not have a visa to get in

i've still got loads of windhoek beer left over from my braai party

btw, how are you getting on in norfolk now?
