After a day of travel on Wednesday from Livingstone to Port Elizabeth via Johannesburg, we have now breakfasted and assembled our trusty steeds. Maximum penalty marks go to Mark G for slowest assembly and for managing to puncture two tubes in the process. Faulty items he says. yeah yeah......... he must now buy today's beer rations, not that we are rationing it. Well, sadly I am as a reappearance of gout in my left foot (due to climbing down the gorge and rafting... not beer and red wine consumption) makes cycling doubtful for me at this stage.
Alan Appendix is well and has survived the hiking and rafting without splitting open and gushing blood.
Mark M is pretending to have a cold, no doubt to excuse his cycling performance tomorrow. He also blames his cold for the snoring.
Bruce is by far the winner in the snoring scale with decibels exceeding a 747, and bed shaking a 7.5 on the richter scale.
We are now off the the Addo Elephant Park. Will post again later.

Hi Alan. Hopefully you retained all your worldly goods today. I got the hospital to deactivate you SIM card this morning - the girls at cardiology reception were very helpful. Hope the ride went well today, hope David's gout settles down quickly

Terrible news about the foot David, hope it makes a miraculous recovery... and tell Dad that not a cold in the world can be held responsible for his cycling performance tomorrow...

Snoring??? More like a very cunning plan to get the single room at night.
ReplyDeleteWell according to research done by Monty Python, at least the guy with the gammy leg usually doesn't get eaten first. Well not by their companions, I think with the fauna its around the other way.
