Birthdays and Patat

Hi there all. I know it has been a while… Things that have happened recently include a triple birthday bash at a Chinese restaurant at the V&A waterfront. Andre (13th June), Neil (also the 15th) and I joined up to celebrate being one year closer to racing in the vets league!! Neil and Andre are a lot closer than I am though. It will be sad not having them in the Elite bunch next year!!!

The next thing worth writing about was a trip down to Napier for the Patat Fees Mtb race. My, Andre and Tamara made the trip down to the small town with me. There was a good old “bazaar” there with a stand selling “Snoek & Patat”. A great way to get the post race protein in!!

Next on the cards is a trip up to Knysna for the Oyster Festival and the MTB race.

Well since Zim I haven't been up to much so that explains the lack of any new postings!

Hopefully will do something Awesome soon so I can tell you all about it!!

Zimbabwe

Just returned from a week in Zimbabwe, the place I was born (a long time ago!). What an awesome trip.

The reason for the trip was to go up for my cousin Tara's (Tammy to me!) wedding. It was really cool of Ant and Tara to delay their honeymoon and book 26 other people on a houseboat on Kariba. It is a very embarrassing fact that, before this trip, I a born (but not bred) Zimbo, had never even seen the lake let alone spent a week drinking on it!

Well this trip definitely made up for that and I am sure it won't be the last. Plans are already being made for Easter next year.

It was my first time on Kariba and this led to me catching my first fish (actually 2) as well as my first game of "Dorp Properly" (actually 2). "Dorp Properly" for those uninitiated is similar to monopoly exept you drink when you buy property and you drink when you land on other people's property! It is a hiding to nothing. Stellenbosch definitely needs a version of this game.

Will try post some pictures of the trip later.

Thanks to all those on the 2 boats that made my first experience great.

P.s. Tara and Ant enjoy the honeymoon in Thailand.
