I have an XL T-shirt that I ordered from Pieter this week that fits me like a dress.
If anyone's looking to buy one, I'll swop it for R100 otherwise it'll go into the lucky draw prize pool.

I took 3 collapsed cardboard boxes with... but these don't work well for dune surfing... Brett(Buff) came to the rescue with hardboard sheets coated with wax on the smooth side... fitted with integral handles... these things worked like a charm... on a high enough dune the kids were motoring down at some pace...

Haha Andy... the wind was cool... but the sun was still pretty sharp! SWAMBO burnt her scalp... :lol:

All I can say is thank you to each and everyone that was there, and to all the guys who helped to organise this event, and to the sponsors of the prizes and the trophies. Without you guys it would not have been such a great success. Give yourselves a round of applause!!

I am sat/pe/kisboue/muerte/out on my feet after a loooong exciting day in the sun, and I want to say to every single Blue Bull supporter out there, you can say what ever you want about WP tonight BUT my WP flag is flying proud.... Being at Newlands today, sitting between the general population was such a great experience. WP jou LEKKER ding!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

I will do a Trail Report shortly, but I still have a house full of house-guests from Rosh Pinah, so I dont think it is going to happen tomorrow. In the mean time, please post some pics if you have and give your impressions. :thumbup: :thumbup: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
