I am still very jealous about not been able to make this trip, look forward to hearing about it over a couple beers. (**) (^^)

Hi Brett
The pictures look great posted on the web. Was glad to hear you & David made it back OK. We'd like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the folks who helped us along the way with fuel, food, drinks (non of course), accomodation, repairs, and advice. The flying community in SA & Nam, which being a relative neophyte to I'm still being introduced to, are great folks and as friendly and helpful as could be. I was amazed in landing at the small airstrips how quickly folks would start to arrive to see who'd landed and offer whatever help they could. Cheers to you all!!!! Was a great trip.
Brett, SMS me your email address & I'll send you the last of the pics for the Eros to Omaruru leg.
Steve (^^)
