Thanks, Yanks! :-0




Northward and onward...the last bit of water about before one leaves the Tsendze river...plenty of action at water this trip! ^Q^




q.JPG


We could tell that we were nearing leachy's location (he was already at Bateleur) as birds were dropping from the sky and sulphur was starting to seep from the termite mounds... O-/

And more giraffe...plenty of those on this trip too, as said! :shock:



q1.JPG


One can see that the clouds were becoming fewer...not that it matters in the tropics as the sun only has to catch you through the tiniest hole in the cloud and you frizzle... :O^


We arrived at camp and settled...I was graciously allocated the master bedroom due to my master status, which is appropriate! :yes: Some upstarts had tried to displace me on previous visits to similar accommodation, with bad results for them... ;-)



q4.JPG



leachy immediately began haranguing the Crew... :O^



l: "Why are you late, Borderline? Go and pay! Have you paid? Why are you smoking? How old are you?"

Bl: "...."

l: "Why is your patch of shade larger? Sit properly, man! Tuck in your shirt!"

Bl: "..."

l: "Did you know my penis is THIS big?"

Bl: "..."



q3.JPG


Dwarf had a go at sitting down there, but couldn't take it either...he had been having it for days! :-( (Frewells didn't even go near! lol )


q5.JPG

l, at cackle level 7: "Frewells! where are you! Come here and bend over!"

Frew: " O-/ "

Bl: "Ok, are we sorted now for the potjie tomorrow at Shing? Dwarf and Frewells are looking forward to making it! \O "

l: "No, Jesus of the Wild Dogs is coming to visit Robert and me that night."

Dw: "But I are having catered for everyone! We did been organising and buying..."

l: (level 9 cacklescreech): "WHAT?!"

Dw: "Nothing! That are fine! 0: "

l: "Good."


The Dimwits are not very brave... :no:


I gave leachy the verbally biological once-over and ran away to the hide! :-0

q6.JPG


Soon to be followed... lol

q7.JPG


The hide was very near our unit! Lovely but not good for the sun in the afternoon, as it shines straight into your face at that time of year... O-/ Frewells also came to check on my sulk...and kept guard at the entrance.


q8.JPG


Then leachy came and started off again, so we ran away again! :shock: 0:


q9.JPG

And so began the Great 2017 Potjie War! @#$
