Anyway...this thing may get a little more confused... :O^

leachy and I went on an afternoon drive the Friday evening...and saw very little!


We had our rehearsal that Friday night, with me cleaning the braai drum's rancid water out earlier that afternoon, and working like a dog while leachy sat hurling insults, which I'm used to after 15 years. :-)


Amoli, BC, PRWIN and Gump's clans pitched for the rehearsal, plus a very special witch! O0

Gump had some bizarre arrangement for going out of the Park the next day to do ballet, which I still don't understand...

Anyway, it was restful and great! \O



Reception had had clear warnings that chairs were to be packed against fridges, but the family cast them asunder...leaving us without anything but beer in the fridge...no fruit for leachy... :-(





Image







leachy and I went on a late pre-drunch drive the Saturday, and saw Heksie who had already been to Shingwedzi and back, at around 10h00! \O


We also saw our first impala of the trip! ^Q^ O/\ O\/







Image








This is rutting season, big time, and the males ratcheted into the road, causing leachy to start his new luxury vehicle to avoid damage... :shock:



The vehicle shall be discussed later! But I was allowed to sit in the passenger seat, which is a major upgrade! :-0 :-0 :-0
















Image




Back at Skuks we spotted the Flutties at reception! \O





Image




Don't worry, that's about it as far as animals on this trip are concerned! =O:








Sprocky and his cohorts appeared later that afternoon.... O** :O^ 0*\

Gump went to Lower Sabie with his son , whilst the girls headed upstream to Sabie to do the dancing exam. \O
Some of what I observed....

I did notice Leachy barking orders, he has command of that voice of his. The kids must quiver. O-/

Bushcraft has a large family too. Honorable man forgoes his shoes to provide for his family. ^Q^

Sprocky was wearing his old model shirt, his name did look freshly polished though. He was quiet about the rugby too.

Tshukudu , was trying to find his friend, and forgot to eat again.

The Cow and Flutterby all reminisced about their greyhound jockey days with my SO. =O:

Amoli kept saying her name backwards as the evening wore on.


Rudeness is the weak man's imitation of strength.

That seems to be a recurrent topic of conservation. :-0


God put me on earth to accomplish a certain amount of things. Right now I'm so far behind that I'll never die.

Sometimes it’s not until you don’t see what you want to see, that you truly open your eyes.
