  1. For the steel you're spot on. Wood, light sanding with 120 paper (soften sharp edges a bit where needed, sand paint splatter off, seal with Woodock 5/10/20 depending on the shine you want it to, my taste would be 5.
  2. Don't do too much to it in the way or restoration, it has certain personality and presence in that condition. So consider light sanding and seal the wood and the same for the metal. It's shiny beautiful in it's current state.
  3. Sweet! For a moment the sax player looked like Parrow...
  4. I don't always press the like button on your pictures, maar weet maar, ek waardeer dit, want dis altyd mooi!
  5. The ride home yesterday would've been awesome with that type of refill!
  6. Gobby, slobbering love to you dad!
  7. As Baldrick said and strict diet, they get large in no time flat, worse than Labradors. Super loyal
  8. I'm allowed to chuckle at this as I owned a few Defenders in my time
  9. Hook line and sinker! I hang my head in shame

    Who remembers?

    I tossed the remnants of that game in the bin about three years back, we had great fun with it!

    The Ford F150 had a high/low beam switch in that position too.

  13. The Back Country meals are pricey indeed. I'll stick to what I know this time, work some smash/pasta in, the lad is 13 so I'll need to pack serious carbs for the large worm living in his stomach.
  14. Hau! Kehla, ukupi?
  15. They were butt ugly, but whipped ass wherever they went!
  16. Me again, I notice that one can now buy hiking meals in dehydrated form? Are they any good as I trusted heavily on noodles and tuna back in the day with a staple of Pro-Vita's and biltong. Seeing that the world has moved on I would like to ditch the tuna and noodles, but would appreciate some feedback on these dehydrated meals. Noticed two prominent brands being advertised; -Nomnom -Back country meals Thanks again
  17. I set my MBX 50 up with a 14/35 for top end speed, then did the "hook both feet in the carrier, chin on the tank" for aerodynamics to top out at as high as possible.

    I believe that R&C now prefer the ship delivery system to delivery crews. When using delivery crews, the crews are restricted to using only certain systems and furniture on the voyage to ensure the customer receives their yacht in top condition. Also, risks in ocean crossing deliveries are much higher to insure and to ensure timely deliveries. In short, their business has evolved to the point where their current model of output and delivery is the most cost effective and low risk. The launching at RCYC is strictly for sea trials prior to shipment.
  19. I have the Badger as per above as my EDC. It's a decent knife for the price, the blades keeps an edge for two weeks at least (I use mine for biltong, general cutting, whittling, fishing etc). Bike riding I slip it under my riding shorts on the left leg and hardly bothers me. In the closed position it opens beers caps with little effort and i rate it as a GP EDC for someone in an office environment. Had mine for more that a year and it is holding up just fine. You could do worse than buying a Badger.
  20. I hiked a fair bit in the Berg and South Africa in general between 1994 - 2000. Life got in the way, but I made a decision to get back into. With my eldest at the right age for this I'm going to kick start the adventure. Sent Ian a mail already and will send pictures of the trip once we return. thanks again
  21. Thanks Stretch, will make contact with him
  22. Reviving and old thread: My eldest is now 13, finishing grade 7 in few weeks and it's time to take him up the mountain for a weekend. Is there perhaps someone in the Central Berg area I can contact to arrange a group hike with, for the two of us which will include gear rental etc? Thanks in advance Ed
  23. She's well below average, so your funny bone is functional in my opinion.
