True, will probably have a lay over in joburg, just a few hours or so, depends on what tickets I can swing. Should have said earlier. Will then be flying to Durbs.

So you'll be in Durbs until?
good luck with the JHB crew... they literally couldn't organise a party in a brewery, (doo_much could, but he's generally partying in any case...)

Well seeing as Gautrain will be running to PTA by then, you can just pop over to the Airport, have a quick one or two and then wizz back again before the kids' movie is finished??

Lol - Travel to Airport = R125 one way - so I think not. I would rather drink that amount than use it on a train. But I will be taking it to Hatfield when I need to see a client. They are just across the road from the station. Then you could join me afterwards and we could have lunch at the Dros which is a short walk away.

Anyway. Dros = Black Label draught so I'm in.

Same applies for the KZN meet idea. Need to know what time I should wake up since I am night shift that week...

Why would need a waste of money like that?
Instead we get a toll road to fund the Eastern Cape's road...

Dude, you live in South Africa. Be inventive! Steal some tires from a wheel barrow, hook your steering column up via some poles and a monkey wrench and your sorted. If you dont have the solar panels yet then hook a diesel genny up to a boat motor and your hundreds! Do it Top Gear style!
/This would be a funny site to see...

OK, things have finally settled down and I have answers. I will sadly not be going to joburg. The best ticket I could get was to Durban from Dubai so I am not passing through Joburg. As for Durbs people I would not mind a meet anyway.
KK, my job is in Thailand. I just have to go through SA to get everything sorted as it is being arranged by an SA company.
