Re: Transkei Trip.

I visited White Clay this past December. What a nice place!! They have only a couple of campsites but the view, location and little restuarant (with bar and DSTv for rugby / sport) is a really nice to have. Location is almost on their private beach and close to all other spots in the area. You won't...

Re: Hilux Auto Questions

Andre, I also moved to an auto a year ago and I am very happy with it. Suppose fuel consumption could have been a bit better but what the heck, really nice to drive in any situation.
