Ons is laas jaar die 10de daar deur tot die 17de. En dit was okay.

Probeer maar om so 2 of 3 karre te wees. Dan is jy altyd gesort!

Your best bet is to go in and not to use the runners. Just park and walk in. Say no to any offers of help.

We normaly get 3rd party insurance at Outdoor Warehouse before we go and do the exchange thing at the BP or Sasol garages before the border.

The border police are on thier own time so be patient when they search your vehicle. Once they see that they are not having any joy they normaly send you on your way...
