Re: GEROTEK 17 Nov 2012 FINAL ARRANGEMENTS
Thanks Jorrie for organising a great day, and to all the other drivers that participated, gave advice and encouragement. The spirit of 4x4 lives on. I was a last minute replacement for Andries Scholtz who had already paid and said that he didnt want a refund. What a gentleman! 
So I made a donation to the Reach for a Dream Foundation instead.

Re: GEROTEK 17 Nov 2012 FINAL ARRANGEMENTS
Dankie Jorrie.
Was a good day. Unfortunately that I had to be called away for work at 12h30.
It was a nice day to focus on the basics.
Really brilliant to see so many Patrols herd together.

Re: GEROTEK 17 Nov 2012 FINAL ARRANGEMENTS
Great day, and enjoyed my first outing with the Troll and meeting fellow members.
Tx Jorrie it was excellent and now cant wait for next outing
PS - was not allowed to wash the car, as my son insisted that he wants to be picked up from school Monday in the dirty Troll
