    Hmm, I might have a lookey tomorrow.

    I'm keen to put some mileage on the bike before it gets serviced on Wednesday.

    Any shops even further away, in the Wild West somewhere?

    Yip yip - still set for the 6th June. If everyone who is interested in going can join the Cape Town Fish Keepers social group though so that we can finalise everything that would be great.

    Dude, there's enough time in the day. Riebeeck Kasteel aint that far...we'll probably be there for about 2 - 3 hrs (including travel). All other LFS in CPT are close to each other.

    Maybe we could 'just' do hartlands followed by a Braai, and then if we get back handy, we could nip somewhere else before the braai?? We could all meet at an agreed place before heading off to riebeek Kasteel so we can all car share!

    After all, most people in Cape Town are able to travel to the various LFS's in the region, where as Hartlands is a bit 'outhere'!

    how does that sound?? We can finalise in the CT fish keepers bitty rather than out here in the open!

    Cheers
    Big G!
