Hi Flutterby,
Have you worked out the route you are going to take yet. If you taking the N17 through Bethal, Ermelo, Piet Retief and Pongolo why don't you stop for some coffee on the way back. We are less than 1 km off the highway.
The Standerton route might have lots of stop and goes between Standerton and Perdekop. When we went to Wakkerstroom in March they were busy redoing about a 50 km section of the road, which I doubt will be finish by now.

Hey BJ,
We are taking the N17, but we won't be coming back the same way. After the parks, we are going to Ballito for a few days...but thanks for the invitation!

Do you think we could stop at you on the way there and borrow your cat magnet for a little while!

I think the Brat is a bit confused as to where you live!

We'll go via Bethal, Ermelo, Piet Retief, Pongola.
It would be great if you could come!!
