    "It's a desperate situation he's in, tragic really, that's why I've put him up for a bit," she explains. "We're lucky with the home we have that he can have one end and I have another." Cath also doesn't fully blame Wiggins for his own predicament. "I'm not going to name names. But people took advantage. And Bradley was very generous. He was never that interested in money," she concludes. There's normal people out there with real sad stories beyond their control that never had 13 million pounds to squander. IFFA.

    They didn't use the bridle path, if that's the one that goes down to constantia They came of the mountain Hout Bay side and down into Donke Yatse in IY. They were observed and one identified. HBay Saps was actively trying to locate him today. San parks is aware and is allocating resource with Saps for weekend operations. They were actually doing a combined operation at the time of the mugging. Reality is unless you have a drone, finding 3 guys on the mountain side with a few people committed to the cause is not easy. The perps have the advantage of sitting and observing from vantage points often and then moving accordingly to avoid the resources trying to locate them.

    You confusing the Judicial system with Saps. Saps apprehends and processes to hand suspects over to the judicial process. Judicial system is the one granting bail and and parole left right and center to repeat offenders. Roughly 7000 mob killings in SA last year, mostly in lower income and rural communities, but also in large city townships. Favorite modus operandi, whipping, stoning and beating for many hours, capped off with liberal dousing of petrol and optional accessory of a tire. 99% of participants don't have a Ak47 under their pillow and a 100% of them are not worried about the 'die nag van die lang messe' , almost all go back to a normal law abiding existence straight afterwards. They you and me, just tired of legal system that allows criminals to operate freely in their communities , that is until they overstep the line. Then the community collectively deals with the problem. The main difference is their communties are not full of woke snowflakes feeling sorry for a individual that chose to commit crimes.

    I thought Comrades would be a race of attrition, it's more about the nutrition actually! endurance races are actually secret eating races !!

    Indeed it was. although the little head wind on the 'nose' in the valley of death was the coupe de grace for me 😬

    TTOM 2024 Plans don't always work out on the day it seems! Mind was told to **** off by the body in no uncertain terms today. A disappointing day out with 30min slower on the clock than last year. Dammit..means I have to comeback next year 🫣
  12. McD23
    can anybody confirm for sure that the route is identical to last year ? Wondering if the little dog leg as you enter Noordhoek is the same as last year.

    anyone run the Baldwin Peninsula this am?

    Paragraph 1 basically correct. But bear in mind there is a world wide narrative to disincentivize civilians from having the means to viably defend themselves in confrontations with violent perpetrators and allow 'trained LE' responders to come save you in that given moment, that doesn't often work out well for the victim to have armed response post the event. Its a Catch 22 carrying, it is definitely not for everyone and comes with it own unique set of complications. 2 if you are under attack, reasonable, rational and proportional will apply. Reality is in this country many victims of attacks with stones/bricks/clubs/knives/fists have died, you would be able to justify in most cases if attacked with the above defense. You don't have to use the same means of defense/weapon as they using to attack you. 3 yes concealment is a requirement, if it in a holster, under shirt/cover or bag it legally concealed.
