Tromp Posted July 18, 2014 Share And that the cigarette ad's were sometimes better than the movie. Remember the Camel Man?Every boy dreamed of being THE CAMEL MAN. especially with those Land Rovers . Were smoking allowed in the cinemas in those days ? ( Non smoker by the way , ha ha ) Edited July 18, 2014 by Tromp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Excite_Bike Posted July 18, 2014 Share I remember driving with my dad down Christian de Wet, through Allens neck and there being nothing but instant lawn pastures on either side. The sub station on the left has always been there though. No Clearwater mall, no Makro, no town house complexs, nothing! Tromp 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javadude Posted July 18, 2014 Share Who remembers when you could cycle from Krugersdorp to Magaliesburg every afternoon after school and not see a single shack or informal settlement. My only worry back then was being too slow through Krugersdorp West and the locals beating the crap out of the rooinek in his lycra. blondeonabike, MrFine and SwissVan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

javadude Posted July 18, 2014 Share Talking about Krugersdorp...who remembers" Hillsnacks?"Right on top of the Krugersdorp hill, with coloured lights strung between the trees. It had the best view at night. And across the road from hill snacks where the hang-gliders used to launch from they used to hold the SA MTB downhill and XC championships in the late 80's early 90's.
