.458AubsJ Tjomma,
sure you would, me too.... lol
on the toyota issue id be in camp having my third beer before your Toyota made it in to camp, at the end of the day a land rover 130 with my set up is a superior off road vehicle (even with the cost of the maintenace on them) to the land cruiser as much as i like them.
Am i seeing you at one of the shows in Johannesburg?

luanAubrey
I will be in camp with my old 2.7 dc and finished hunting that elli before you arrive towing by a toyota.
Aubr yes i will make a plan to come see you and organize a hunt for the end of the season.

I had an sms from him yesterday and he's having computer problems so will probably not know you Toyota blokes are givring him shit...... I think I'll let him remain in happy ignorance for now!

Mate, it's not us you need to warn about your croc fishing, it's the crocs...... after all, it's only fair to warn them you'll be chucking perfectly good fishing rods that could cause concussion at them!

shakariLuan,
Mate, maybe you should try fitting a bayonet to the end of the rod so you can harpoon the bastards as you throw the rod in!

18 February 2011, 21:21
Wendell ReichThat is a reasonable price. Especially considering the potential of the area.

.458AubsLuan
despite your kind offer to pay less than the equavilent of what i spent on services on my excellet vehicle last year i only have one elephant left, so change your figure from Rands to Dollars and we might have a deal.
BTW - a little bird tells me that a croc bit you, what were you doing to it?
