Africa Wild

Or ruined the bus....

Day 3 Part 5:




So Sprocky and I decided to chase the sable down to the other bit of water at the dam wall.

Actually, it wasn't a very fast chase, as Sprocky was a bit inebriated, IMO?

The athletics track:





















Spr: "Huuff puff! I can see it! Drat this thing is impeding me between my legs!"

RP: "Sometimes a long lens can be an impediment, you see... "

Spr: "Huff puff...why are you stopping?"

RP: "I want to touch the unit of Toko!"




















Anyway, the sable was gone, and we ascended into the hide for a rest/wait!





Col. Schwarz: "Aha! Zey haf made der run for it! I thought it vould happen! Kamera two shows ze fat vun rolling around in ze bed of an occupied unit! Zis ist ze end for him!"

M: "That animal they were chasing...what colour is it?"

Col. Schwarz: "Black und vhite... "

M: "Stand down..this is election year! "

Col. Schwarz: " "





Here is the view:











We had a lovely evening in that hide, meeting an Italian regular, ironically, who shared all sentiments regarding commercialisation and what not!

It was a pity we didn't have AW business cards between the two of us, for some reason...but a good friend made!

We saw squat, but it is a very nice hide, which I think was washed away by the floods...

Not quite sure yet what that tells me about your state of mind.
Apart from any romantic feelings that you have.

Where are the animals?

What is Toko's unit and what has it to do with all this trifle

each unit has a name... if I remember correctly

athletic track... athletic...

Well, my guess is that Toko has stayed there before.

the last one, near the fence

Interesting, nana!

Sorry, Lis...no animals around...

Day 3: Evening:



The sun was finally releasing us from its grip...a grand gesture of farewell...














Col. Schwarz: "Vell dun, sun! Zey vill be departink manyane! "

Sun: "A pleasure, Colonel! It is a bit ironic that I've had to power their appliances, though..."

Col. Schwarz: "A mere nothink...Just to get zem aus! Herr Bombed hast broken mein nerve... "



So it was Dwarf and Sprocky's turn to cook that night...and quite a scrumptuous feast! I can't remember, but I think they made wors and ice?



And then an animal appeared at the fence!













GB: "Eeek! Tokoloshe!"

DW: "This ice are melting on this grid... "

Mam: "Eeek! Tokoloshe!"

Frew: "Will someone let me out of the boot...I've locked myself in again!"

Spr: "Be calm...it's only a bushpig..."



Then we had a sublime last night, Sprocks blew up his matress in the corner of my master bedroom, and all ended well until the next morning!
