Nick & Fanie is bringing charcoal. Alan will you bring the garlic chilly rolls and Sharon the green salad, please.

We are planning to have a background slide show of our recent Botswana Fly away Adventure. There are going to be so many pictures that we have opted for a few projectors. Thanks Nick and Mark for bringing projectors & laptops. We will also bring a laptop, projector and screen.

In the spirit of the reunion, please dress in your shirt with the badge on.

We will bring some fritter mix as well.

If you want copies of the photos I would suggest you bringing a memory stick....a big one.

Oom Polla, I will bring the one (8GB) I borrowed from you....sorry I kept it for so long..

Looks like we will be able to FLY & braai this time.
