    Lusted for a Landy but the Pajero was sexier and bigger in the right departments, just like my Missus.

    Wow Stranger...you certainly have a wonderful way of expressing yourself. I recall your Bots report in 2015, and look forward to the next installment of this one! Lovely experiences (other than the blowout) encapsulated in your pics.
    We spent 19 days in the Kgalagadi last July, and this just resurrects the fond memories.
    Thank you.

    Somewhere inside my head They are not extracts. Purely fictional, except for the true bits. There may be a passing reference to someone called Alex that likes blowing stuff up, but just a passing reference.

    Stranger,


    It still looks like fairly new BFG's you have on the rims. Do you perhaps think that your pressure was too low on that tyre? I'm going in April for the 1st time & try to gather as much as possible info. BTW a very nice report thanks!
