Well it hasn't been a cheap excercise...

We've used up around 400 bags of pohole mix so far.... At R125/bag.

I have now found a cheaper supplier @ R75/bag.

These bags are 25kg ea and some holes take up to 20 bags!

But ja, if they arrest me I'll have a new thing to complain about here

I'm confused, Mike: that appears to be a large semi-private of shopping center parking area and not a public road: where and how was the oke supposed to stop?

That photo is of the parking at the Engen Garage on the N1 just North of Pretoria - the little tower in the background is diagnostic.

That part of the car park also happens to be the trailer parking - hence the very long parking sections you can see painted on the paving.

So I'm not totally sure I follow what the issue was...

Fearless and Gearless - IIRC it was my suggestion of the name "Gearless" that prompted Manny to give it its current name.

This presupposes authority.

I shall exercise this authority again.

Henceforth, this combination will be referred to as "Rock n' Roll"
