Why dont you fly down to Durban and then go on the road trip to JHB then from JHB fly back to PE or go back to Durban on the road trip and then fly back to PE from Durban again? ;) :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :lol: :lol:

If you want to get really technical, PTA is about 1440m above sea level. The distance between PTA and Durban is 620km. The distance is 440 times longer than the height difference. So lets say... they are going TOWARDS Pretoria. Pointless, I know yes.

I've always associated "up" with travelling north and "down" with travelling south. :P

I think I could definitly do that :!:
Still waiting to hear back from my laanie on the leave story. He did not sound too keen on giving me a week's leave, but if I just ask him for the Monday off, I'm sure he would be cool with that.
If you dont have your new car by then, we can use my Polo.

Let me see if my new terms are acceptable here at work, will post tomorrow with the news!
