I'll be doing a short preview of our trip on the weekend of the 11th and 12th of August, when I have the honour to host a group of eight geologists from the University of Bern, Switzerland. It even includes a lapa braai at Diggers, as the group will be staying over at Diggers.

Bigred is getting new tyres this weekend, so I'm ready and all fired up to Tie In The Dots.

KaiV - I assume there is a "Bigred" somewhere in your house or garage :shock: I'll refrain from referring to the big ugly red thing in my garage as "bigred"

You will be sorry when the tigers don't bite and we are having fun in the mountains.

Roelf,

We planned a little holiday arouns this trip! We will be in the Kruger Park the week before the 29th, camping.
You mentioned that the option of camping is available at Diggers, where can we get more info? We're thinking of maybe camping there from the friday to the saturday!

Jaco,

If you look through this thread you will find a brochure I posted on Diggers Retreat. On one of the earlier posts I also posted a link.

If you still battle, send me a PM and I'll direct you some more.

Does this mean you intend to Tie the Dots with us? I hope so.

Cheers
Roelf

We have a booking at Punda Maria from 01 to 06 October. (Work permitting :evil: :evil: )

I am trying to change the first night for a spot somewhere midway up in Kruger, which will then give us the opportunity to join you guys for the weekend. Will keep you posted.

Johan

KaiV,

I could call my car "Big thirsty", but then your wife will probably complain that I'm using her name for you :D

The numbers are growing and the remaining days are shrinking.

I'm really looking forward to the weekend!
