Smiley Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 Great to get a big gay pile-on from WW over there. I've muted the idea to our Maud. Don't think she's up for it, but wouldn't stop me. 60p a pint. Who can afford NOT to go!! Quote

Any advice or anyone got any plans afoot? Quote

Any advice or anyone got any plans afoot? We drove from Durban to Cape Town. Took a couple of days but well worth it if you want to see things other than cricket grounds and big city drinking establishments. Quote
Smiley Posted January 7, 2015 Posted January 7, 2015 I'd suggest Durban & Cape Town. Drive between the two or part fly part drive which we did. Quote

Me and a couple of bosses at work are doing Durban and Cape Town. Just need to get it booked. Looking at flying with Emirates Via Dubai on Christmas Day Same flight I did 4-5 years ago. Quote
seasoned Traveller Posted February 9, 2015 Author Posted February 9, 2015 KLF have some decent prices, via the Dam. Toying with the idea of going out Boxing Day to Joburg, doing safari then off to Cape Town for the test. I think she's warming to the idea... Quote
scoobydoo Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Leaving Boxing Day night until 12 jan if anyone fancies a beer and a braai Quote
olispence Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Got hotels booked for both Cape town and Durban. Just hoping flight prices will drop a bit. Best we can get is £700 with Turkish airlines.. Well other than flying with Saudi and having 12hrs+ stuck in a dry transit lounge in Jeddah which could be done for £384! Quote
olispence Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Got it booked. Decided to go for Turkish Airlines. £659 Quote
Traf Posted April 7, 2015 Posted April 7, 2015 Got it booked. Decided to go for Turkish Airlines. £659 Sounds delightful Quote
