Posted by Martin Armitage on 30 September 2004 at 09:42

Just had a visit from Carol from Print One with details of the South African holiday weve one in their recent draw, looks fantastic, just need to decide who will be going now – I dont know why but everyone here seems to want to go! Im trying to dissuade them as its only for 6 people.

Im based in Cape Town , which is undoubtedly on your itinery , you would be most welcome to come and have a look at my setup or just give me a call to go out for dinner or something like that.
When is your trip happening?

Thanks for the invite Rodney, If I am lucky enough to go I will definately take up you up on that. Cape Town would definately be worth a few days. Just need to convince my wife that there are no lions running loose – its a bit of a phobia of hers!

Hi Martin
There’s no Lions and such where you’re going (if you go) unless you go to a Game Farm or Game Reserve. A visit to Cape Town is easily arranged. Flights are cheap via NationWide Airlines & others – similar to EasyJet at about £70. Loads of various accommodation you can check out on the web.
Hi Rodney
I’ll be in Hermanos in the Cape in January for a week or so. Maybe we could meet up?

There’s 2 more draws in 2005 January and August. Be Lucky!

It would be great to meet up , where are you staying in hermanus ?
My parents in law stay in Kleinmond , just the other side of Hermanus.
When I was a kid we used to go to Hermanus every year on holiday and stay in this typical english seaside hotel (its still there , but modernised , now called the Marine)

Spent many a happy hour in Hermanus at a friends holiday home. It’s a pity I never got to see any whales though, too busy knocking back the Castle Lager. :drink4:

Hi Rodney
I don’t know the full address – I’ll get back to you soon with it!

Hi Mike.
That’s one of the advantages in South Africa – Culture & History – Full of Lions and Castles!
