Hi All

Yes Leon it is for my replacement, but the training period will take some time so guys will be stuck with me for a little while longer.

Darren

I think you should edit your post again and add that the successful candidate MUST be in possession of a valid Gyro Pilot's Licence.

That way we dont lose a concomitant, keeping our small Gyro fellowship in tact - and we get to keep you here longer.

:lol:

Hi All

Len, whilst at Gariep I enlisted the help of our friend Tinkerbell to find me a good South African girl, so far her search has come up empty.
I dont suppose its an easy task, after all when a perspective girl says tell me three things about him, all she can offer is, 1 - well he's an Aussie, 2 - he spends most his weekends flying Gyros, 3 - If he's not flying he's out on his motorbike, it's not exactly an easy sell :lol: :lol: :lol:

New visa application began today, watch this space :shock:

Cheers

Glad to hear that your new Visa application is in!

The reason poor Tinkerbell can't deliver is because your specification is flawed... "good South African girl" ??
You should have asked for a "bad South African girl"!

Plenty of those around and they are much more fun anyway :lol:

If you were in Cape Town, Cx would have been onto it right away, being the compulsive matchmaker that she is. vhpy

Hi All

Len it seems you have been right all along, from day one you tried to convince me the Cape is the place to be. Perhaps those Cape girls would be a little more accepting of my Aussie charm :lol: :lol: :lol:
Maybe I need to sign Cx up as my personal relationship manager/advisor, looks like another trip to the Cape is on the cards vhpy
