The handbrake and I had a fantastic time except for all her moaning about the cold at 8000 ft. Was not sure what she was on about all the time as I could not feel it through the heated suite that she gave me for my birthday. The stiches are coming out next week. :lol: :lol:

It was good to see everyone having a good time as well as all the familiar faces and some new ones.

Thanks to Thinus Eloff for the flight in his MT03. Its was really special and its a great machine.

Glad to hear that everyone got home safe including all those that drove down. (^^)

Hi Demon,

You must of done the Howick leg on Sunday. Pity I didn't know. :oops: :oops:

I flew the Estcourt - Howick (pee and puff) - Light Flight on Sunday - we could have gone together. !!!!

I chose not to go over the Tugela Ferry (one of your legs) - far too wild. :shock: :lol:

Regards
John
