FF6V Mopani

[Alf]

We are booked in at Mopani tonight in a FF6V bungalow. Next to us in unit no 10 we have a SP official still in his uniform. Only him in a 6 bed bungalow. I went onto the SP availability list and saw there's 3 of these units available for the night.

That makes you wonder, if a unit isn't booked, then do these SP officials take turns in using these bungalows? For free? It doesn't make sense to me that one person will book and pay for a 6 bed bungalow

So tonight he has a view over the dam, a nice tv to watch soccer and a nice bed to sleep in.

It is common practice, Alf. Visiting officials have always been allowed to use accommodation if available...in fact I think there are always one or two units kept open in case, which is why one can get a spot at the very last minute!

Ja, had the same thing twice at Lower Sabie.

Makes perfect sense to accommodate staff in these facilities. Where else will travelling officials stay? In a hotel?
What's wrong with them enjoying the accommodation and amenities - the view the tv the aircon? They have a huge share in and contribution to make in our parks.

Live and let live.

Hi Dikkop,

First off all this isn't a travelling official. This was a normal ranger.

and the times I have seen this at Lower Sabie it was the school holidays, so a massive demand for the unit from paying clients Surely staff villages should cater for this
