Special Surprise One !!
« on: November 10, 2011, 08:54:26 PM »
First surprise or rule on the trip is that the women / co driver will get an opportunity to have a drive.

The wife / partner / co driver will have the pleasure of driving the leg from the Lions Den to old Laura Homestead. This is a very easy leg with a few small creek crossings and approx an hours drive.

It gives the ladies on the trip a chance experience the Cape roads at a leisurely pace and a safe easy drive.

Ladies enjoy it as I can guarantee the husband will not let you drive again unless it's to the bottle shop ;D

Duggie has suggested I should go with him this trip, he already thinks I am a bit of a girl, (I am a nerves passenger especially when duggie is driving) so he likes this idea, as he is thinking along Smartways plans.  ???
