Re: Lowveld - NUMBI 7 - 10 August 2009
Myself and my softness is a little bid scared to fly over the Drakensberge from my farm to Numbi!!
I have spoken with Bryent Molefe at Numbi on two ocasions regarding acommodation over the long weekend of 7,8,and9 August and the general impression I got was that by the time everybody has made up their minds about this outing no acommodation is going to be available!!!
My suggestion is........I will book two adjoining camping sites at Numbi.....You bring me your tent, stretcher, blankets and chairs and whatever to me in Benoni.....I go a day in advance and build a camp that will acommodate you and........ whala !!...
On condition offcourse that I WILL BE A PAX on every fly outing which leaves the camp!!!!
and that the costs are shared equally amongst everybody.
Two adjoining camping sites have been reserved on my name until Sat 4 July...
My cell no is 0825596115 if you are interrested call me.

Re: Lowveld - NUMBI 7 - 10 August 2009
Anyone still need to book, please call NUMBI. They reserved 9 rooms and we need to finalise by 7 July
Good day Mr de Kock
We have reserved 9 rooms for you, of which we have made 3 for 2 people
sharing and 6 are for single people at present - just to give you a cost
structure. All 9 rooms are twin rooms and can sleep two men or a couple in
each room which gives you a total of 18 people if you like.
Please advise soonest the no of single rooms you require and the no of
double/sharing rooms you require - within the 9 rooms - this will then
determine the total cost and we will require a 50% deposit. I am attaching
a proforma invoice for the layout as advised above.
As this is a long weekend we will require this to be finalised by 7th July
with a deposit paid by then. We only have these 9 rooms available at
present.
Our bank details are:
Account name: Scopefull 186 Pty Ltd
Bank: Standard
Branch: Hazyview
Acc not: 330302191
Branch code: 05245200
We hope you find the above in order and look forward to receiving a rooming
list 2 weeks prior to arrival.
Kind regards
