A man that took great pleasure from other people getting stuck in the dunes after not listening to good advice and then driving off in his X5. He will be missed.

Not good news. He promised me to join us at Waterford one day. RIP Bartho. Believe you will conquer those heavenly dunes.

I am shocked at this news. We met with him in September last year and had a blast of a time. Still communicated with him on a daily basis since then on Whatsapp.
RIP boet.
