Poll - Waterhole-Sitting Project July/August 2018/19/20

Post by Richprins »

Dwarf and I are looking to do a "live" report from a waterhole next month (Someone has to do it.)

We can discuss a bit then vote on where I should go! ..0..

Some ideas here: viewtopic.php?f=263&t=8369

Cellphone reception is obviously an issue, though! :-0

stf did some very professional research on their last trip, but not much in the south. :-( :ty:

Anybody know what cell reception is like there?

I think it has fairly decent signal.
The trip I took my inlaws on. We entered Melalane heading up to Skukuza.
We stopped at Renosterpan and the MIL's cell phone proceeded to ring, and she started yapping. :evil:
When she finally got off the phone, I told her in no uncertain terms would that be happening again and she had to switch it off --00--
