Many of my people seem to be off to sunny climes just now. You know who you are and I hate you all.
For those of us not actually basking in the sun, here’s a look at somewhere really hot and dry…
John has been to visit his two youngest boys where they live and work on a farm near Aurora, on the West Coast of South Africa . It’s semi desert with temperatures around 40C.
He liked it there; far from civilisation and peaceful. The dirt road sees no cars at all some days.
They grow some sizeable specimens…
And is home to some interesting birdlife…Some tamer than others…
Conrad here is in films – as an extra – what a poser very photogenic.
He’s also a good cook – I remember this from my travels of a couple of years back – this time serving up deep fried rabbit strips…
Which John pronounced delicious.
Geoffrey, the youngest, is the outdoors type…
Well they both are really.
They were involved with an anti poaching unit up near Kruger before. Exciting stuff. They’ve recently been offered work on a Big Game Farm near to Port Elizabeth, which they are about to start I believe.
Not sure who looks roughest in this one…Only kidding!
Now where have I seen that before…?
Ah yes, that’s it!
Spot the UK one.
Well apart from monkeying around in a restaurant on the way to PE…That’s all the pics I have so far. Hopefully there will be more to come and I look forward to sharing them.
Beats banging on about the mud.
Great Phots of your Men Folk, plus I like the Blackhead Dorper’s, Which Game farm are the lads going to be working on…?
Nobody told me the name of the game farm yet Tony, but is 50mins out of PE towards Grahamstown.
If you look on my FB page you will find a friend of mine Colin Ashwell he lives down that end of South Africa Nice Guy
