You in the bush having a blast. Time to leave. You turn the key in your overlander/motorhome/campervan ignition...NOTHING, NADA! Sounds familiar? Well you must watch this. Problem solved!

How many times has your motorhome or overlander died on you. Battery KAPUT! Well here is a solution that has been tried and tested.

This is how The Courier Guy delivered our A Frame for the Jimny. We doing our first long trip in Meraai in August and the Jimny is coming with. This A Frame is made by Lionel De Vos and it costs around R10 000. Not cheap, but excellant quality. The Courier Guy obviously used this package as a rugby ball. Usually The Courier Guy is really good. This time they were k ! The CEO of The Courier Guy, Is Craig Pitchers. If anyone knows him, please tell him that I am really pee'd off with his company.EDIT ADDED I have just received a mail from The Courier Guy apologising and promising that bthey are already looking into this. Amazing what you can achieve if you cc the CEO!

In this episode we take Meraai on her first real road trip to a part of South Africa that is particularly close to our hearts. We also introduce you to Bra SK. A little guy whose opinions on the places we visit, will be expressed in a way that is hard to ignore!

Meraai's maiden voyage. A 900km round trip that would be her first real road test. We head the one of the most spectacular regions on earth. A world Heritage...

Ye yes yes, We have been ever so quiet. It is the calm before the storm! We have sold our house and are now busy renovating the Lockup and Go that we bought. Meraai is going to be our home while we renovate. Then we will start to do what we have been planning to do , TRAVEL! So a couple more hectic months, then KABOOM! But we have been filming. Lots of filming and I cannot wait to knuckle down and edit it together. Meraai is looking incredible!

It is beyond me that there are so many people who still insist on using fireworks that terrorise our pets and our wildlife.
