Push on with my fabrication venture and hopefully get to a point where we can do some traveling again.

Only a Bonehead would assume that everyone knows that IM 70.3 refers to a half Iron Man -it's like Iron Man but for Binary Poefs...

I entered for the Namaqua Quest 3 day stage trail run over 80km this year

Looking forward to doing Kruger Park's Lebombo Trail in September and continuing to Inhambane and down to Kosi Bay.

I guess I have done my first trip for 2023. Got something booked for April/ May and again round September.

Get things done on my to do list:

• Front recovery points (reinstall)

• Anderson plug for air compressor

• Sort out recovery track bracket for roof rail

• Solutions for water on the Fortuner

Trips:

• Fraser Island

Mods:

• Rock sliders. Not sure if I'm ready to DIY this again

• Perhaps a 2 Inch lift

Stock up on alcohol to celebrate the Springbok Rugby World Cup victory in France on the 28th of October

The very tame but much acclaimed Seven Passes road done and dusted this past weekend.

One down many to go. Next one will be Nature's Valley which is becoming a 4x4 obstacle course on the EC side, and Baviaans.

And I understand Andrew bin Hedgehog's goal for 2023 is emigration to the UK.........the 4x4AG and indeed the whole of Rustenburg sighs in relief.

Good luck Hedge. May the pints be cold and the fish & chips fresh.

Nope, not so quick Jakes.
I'll still be here hounding you to go offroad, for much longer than that.

Going to the UK now would be like boarding the Titanic just after it hit the iceberg....

It will still float longer than this dingy called Souf Efrica

You’ll have to speak up Manny. Cannot hear you with all the generators running in the background

Our lives are unfortunately influenced by so many external factors. Even Darwin would not agree to his own theory anymore.
Covid, load shedding..Zumaruption, Ramaphosakak.. Eksdom all actually influence us daily and just as we drive a goal to achieve, something or somebody throws a spanner in the works.
My goal, live every day to the fullest, 4x4 hard, work hard, play hard.
I have seen and leant that life has absolute no gaurentees, not even the air we breathe.
I say, be like Landrover drivers.. ONE LIFE LIFE IT
CARPE DIEM.
