Re: Improvements to the Forums
Just the ramblings and musings of an old mind but here goes.
This forum is very serious. There aren't many "fun" threads. I also think we should have a few award threads. Like a Prattley Putty award: For the person who cracked the most (as in lost their cool).
Then we should all vote for the person who was seen to have done the dumbest thing in the Gallery of shame and bestow upon this fooligan: The Darwin award.
While we're at it can we add a few more like some discussion about which is your personal favourite camp and why. (I think this will promote some of the camps and share knowledge.) Pictures of the camp would be an advantage for anyone researching where they might stay when in the reserves.
Final suggestion: Like I get that they are "national parks" but I think the word park implies a place to play. Can we among the forum agree to call them "reserves" from henceforth? (Dunno if anyone has noticed I seldom use the word "park" for that very reason.)

Re: Improvements to the Forums
Hey RP ,
Was looking and could not find a thread on advise which links into BH's suggestion of the different camps and accommodation, so maybe have something like this on the forum?

Let us permit nature to have her way. She understands her business better than we do.

BH and JN
There is a forum about Kruger camps here
perhaps some greenies could add some more pics here
and of course, you can start a topic there: What's your favourite camp and why?

Re: Improvements to the Forums
Apart from the fact that "intelectual" is written "intellectual" I agree with RP! Start an inteLLectual forum, which is really needed here. Maybe there will be few "clients", but at least of qualitylowveldboy wrote: What about our "intelectual challenged" mites like me?
