:rolling: .... there were a few technical glitches..... never stupidity, with that comes experience...... WELL DONE TO ALL. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

George was brilliant with assisting through some of the more tricky ones.... BIG THANKS GEORGE !!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :salute: :salute: :salute:

One thing must be said.... we were warned before we even booked to go to Moegatle.... Its a terror course !!!!.... and there was a chance of a little damage happening. But considering the course..... Our Nissan's did us proud!!! and so did the drivers !!!! WELL DONE TO YOU !!!! :clap: :clap: :clap:

I also want to say that is amazing to be in a group of people that are all from different lifestyles, different ideas and different jobs, yet we ALL join together as one group everyone chats to everyone..... we ( The Nissan guys & girls ) don't do the "click" thing .... we are one team. many other clubs could learn a thing or two from us. And then one other thing..... with so much testosterone flowing through the veins ( no not just you Driko).... not once did anyone say anything to anyone if they chose the chicken route..... THAT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN........ IS RESPECT TO YOUR FELLOW NISSAN FRIENDS !!!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

PS:..... I chomped my seat a few times on some of those obstacles !!!!!

Grant..... a big thanks to you my friend.... well done!!!
Regards

Well I must say.... anyone want to have a relaxed camping long weekend, there is a great pub QQQ ..... fantastic swimming pool.... accommodation was fine for me.... ( we stayed in a very basic trailer park home..... trailer park trash...... :rolling: :rolling: :rolling: ), so not sure what the chalets were like, but the area where we made breakfast in on the Sunday morning was BEAUTIFUL !!!....seemed well organised. so Jules.... no excuse :lol: :lol:

oh and "old man" emu's running everywhere trying to steal everything....they are worse than ostriches :lol: :lol:

That one Emu at the pool showed us how bad your traction can be if the shocks get wet!

Wonderful piece of equipment called a "cable tie" or in Afrikaans a "plastiek spyker" - works wonders out there off the beaten track.... :biggrin:
