Nope.
Alles op gebreek.....
Had enough of pool maintenance the past eight years.

Bought the house with the pool.
Could have well spent that money on Umpalumpa with new suspension, bumpers, tyres and the list goes on.....

Marblelite is a bad option, very, very old school (I know they still like to do it that way in Gauteng). Chip-tiling is far better and glass-fibre better still. Smooth, unbroken and non-porous surfaces don't allow algae to get a good foothold - just wipes off / brushes off if it has been allowed to...

Swimming Pool before and after..... Had it refurbished 2 years ago. Paid R30k to have everything replaced. Roof heating, pump, new lines, everything. Basically a new pool. Then water started disappearing 3 months ago. Bought a blanket to help with evaporation, but still water going missing. My water...

On the one side, I have to thank Riaan Grobler for fixing my gate after this rain we had. Friendly, Efficient and I will have to see what he charges per hour..... :lol: :lol: Seriously guys, use Riaan for your electrical work. He is on this forum and he is the Birthday boy, Thabo Grobler's brother. ...

Ek sal opmaak met nbiertjie of 2..... voel soos n poe......l hoor. Daai skielike aproach laat n man altyd wonner......

Met Thabo Grobler at Chamberlains in Centurion today.
At first I thought this was a guy getting to me with a crap story of wanting money to feed his 20 kids....

Sorry Thabo!!
My SWAMBO had a good laugh at me because of my reaction.....

But why would Toyota EU say "yes" and Toyota SA say "no"?

OK. So I did some general inquiry regarding the usage of Biofuel in my Lux. In Europe Toyota advocates the usage of biofuel in their vehicles if it complies to standards set out by the EU. http://www.toyota-europe.com/about/news_and_events/e10-biofuels.tmex" onclick="window.open(this.href)...

Dit gaan al so sleg met my....
Ek moet vir Umpalumpa bottelstoor toe stoot want ek het nie geld vir diesel en 2SO nie.....

Donasies welkom (Jack of johnny sal doen)

Kan nie help om te lag nie, maar daai prentjies beskryf so baie oor so baie dinge huidiglik in ons land!!

Sulke Bli...........S!!!!!!!!!!!!

I see on Vleisboek that Biofuel is available in Centurion @ R11.50 per litre.
Has anyone tried this route? Would you?

Share your experiences please?

Now go and pimp that beast........

Kyk ne.... Dis MOEVIES vinnig, maar so n laaitie verdien nie so n kar nie.
Ek kon op soveel plekke tel waar daar dalk families in die ander karre was.....
EISH!!!!

Very Northern part of Norway.
Port is called Tromso.
Only -7C at the moment....

Hope and trust all members taking the long roads for the season holidays do so safely. Have fun and enjoy the well earned rest. Have a Blessed Christmas and New Year. This is the weather I am currently experiencing..... Anybody want to SWOP? http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y481/Umpalumpa911/Mobi...

I am sure we all have a can like this.
And with the summer increasing heat it could be taken note of this...

Thanks Jaco.... Obviously nie so "High en Low" gesoek nie.....

I have looked high and low on who rents out 220/12v fridge/freezer units.

Between 55 and 80L capacity.
Any suggestions pls? Will even go on a "try-and-buy" deal....

Seems like more training and focus on driver education should be done. Due to lack of knowledge or just being ignorant, 2 people have lost their life's.

Ons wil baie graag George of Sedgefield toe trek.

Ons arme kinners word te gou, te hard groot.

Fortunately, no.
But the school is such a dynamic and vibrant school, and we all know one another in some form or sort.
It is just a bit close to home, pun intended.......

Both my kids are in this school, and I tell you what, even "veldskool" will not be the same again. :( Our own country is being made a prison to all Law abiding citizens...... http://www.jacarandafm.com/post/children-and-teachers-robbed-in-hazyview/" onclick="window.open(this.href...

So, 95000km on the clock and I decided to remove the CAT. Initially a significant more turbo noise noted. Not so much fuel saving, but you must see what they removed from the CAT itself....... http://i1277.photobucket.com/albums/y481/Umpalumpa911/b19b8a2d-5c35-4df5-8d2d-576027764b82_zps32940b22.jpg ...

Se vir daai man ek sien hom binne 2 weke se tyd! Dis glad nie n slegte prys nie.
Moet nou net van die boot af kom en dan by hom uitkom.

Hy stel toe voor dat ek 'n vryloop knaldemper in die cat se plek sit.

Wat het die hele affere jou toe terug gesit? As ek mag vra.....

Ek het genuine lanklaas so lekker gelag!! My siel voel ook sommer nou weer beter!!!

Brilliant!!!!!!

Try turning it 180degrees on those long dust roads.
Still has a "suction" effect to have air to be taken in.

Indeed. Check the battery. Mine did the same. 2 dead cells. Tiger Wheel and Tyre has a new battery range.....

'n Man se gat juk mos, maar dis skoolgeld daai. So leer n mens.

Got my Sticker and pen today!!! Heeeeeee Haaaaaaa

That would be the white Lux with houding.
I think the vehicle has increased value now as well.....

Welcome Dale!

Sure you will be taunted a lot!
All good fun though.

Hairdryer.... Metro male I assume

I like the idea of the rubber snakes.... Assume it would be for the monkeys?
Very nice list. I see I have some shopping to do.....

Perfect for a midweek 2 day breakaway.......

Well, this obviously being the right place to ask. As so many of you have done overland trips in Africa, I am sure there are some seasoned travelers here. Do any of you have a "Checklist" of some sorts for your trips? :beg: This would include spares, fuel, documents etc to make your trip a...
