They made some really cool music way back then Tshuks . I grew up listening to The Stones and all that good junk. I still remember seven singles and vinyl discs. They call it experience and I guess that makes me VERY experienced. But still not as experienced as you Uncle. ^0^

Circa 1974 BC.

It was the title track to their LP that Costafine Town came from.

(And I still think Uncle Tshuks is older than me.)

OK so now having had a musical tour of the early seventies, which some will remember and some maybe not so much, the day ended on a high note for us.

The following morning, we looked in vain for the young spotty one and as I mentioned earlier, saw the LIT instead. The plan was to drive up to Skuks and then take the Tshokwane road, turn onto the H12 and then hit Eloff Street back to Skuks and then back to Berg en Dal. A long drive but we were up for it.

Plan was to stick to the tar roads since the sand roads hadn't really yielded any seriously worthwhile sightings. We saw a fair bit of general game and just north of a water hole, we came across our third lion sighting.

They were mating lions and although she tried to entice him once while we were there, he pulled one of those male dis-tings and ignored her flat. He obviously needed his sleep.
