Very good story, Harry! =O: =O: =O:

\O

Ja, the Quashcow is not 4x4... :no:

We got stuck on Henties beach in front of 100 locals in 1999, in a huge 4x4... 0*\ So it could have been worse! :twisted:

In contrast to Lis I haven't spent quality time at the West Coast so far (and I doubt that'll happen any time soon - not enough cheetahs there lol ),
but it certainly looks nice and I'm sure the seafood must be excellent O:V

Thanks for posting photos of your trip, harrys X#X
