Still waiting for our aircraft alhough worst places to be hanging about I guess…. we had a trip to the Cape yesterday, it’s actually quite windy at the moment. had a few beers the evening before with Ricky, local trike pilot who’s planning to fly around the world leaving 17th Dec. I’ll try and get the link for his site. We’re vainly hoping we’ll get the planes tomorrow, otherwise it will be monday.

Hi John,
Whatever you do do not let anyone with a boring voice do the voice-over on any videos of the trip this time. Just joking. Good luck, have fun, fly safe and come over for a night on the beer when you get back. Mick and Anita

Hi John,
If you need a good ethnic restaurant with interesting decor you could try Mama Africa in Cape Town. You have heard of the ‘big five’ animals that you must see? Well, in this restaurant you can eat the ‘big five’ never mind see them. Mick

Don’t get them going. They went around Oz in the hunt for the ultimate fried brekkie. Start them off on lion and wildebeest and there’ll be none left by the time they’ve finished!!!

So you’re at the beginning of you’re journey and it’s windy. Any sense of deja vu there fellas. You didn’t tell us which way it was blowing though; vital information you know. I hope you’re loved ones had a safe journey……… oh! and Ingrid and Julie too. I wish you all the best and look forward to your updates. I’ll be with you in spirit.
All the best
Keith
