True Friends
author: Leon Botha
Three of my friends (so-called) asked me to take them to the airport because they were going to Bloemfontein for the day!

I thought it was strange as the norm is to park you car at the airport, forget to look where you do so and then at the end of the day when you get back, it takes you three hours and fifty five minutes to get to the right level and area, let alone find where you parked it!

By then your key's battery is flat and so is the car's from all the clicking to try and see where it was by using the flicker lights!

The fact that they each had a big suitcase and warm clothing was also a bit suspect ... but knowing my three friends for long enough - nothing was strange anymore!

So I kept quiet after looking at them suspiciously.

When they asked me to drop them at the Departure A entrance I did say that this was I think the international departure area - and without missing a beat they all said that they wanted to get some exercise with Francois because he had to get fit for the Dakar!

Ok, so I dropped them and they all solemny greeted me looking very guilty.

Bloemfontein? Bloemfontein my arse I thought!

Then they sent me this picture this morning!

Francois Jordaan, Hennie ter Steege and Chris de Wit - the photographer is someone I hope ran away with their camera!













Yes, you are right they are at WRC Spain!

Great friends are they not?

Hope Solberg chased them out of his pit area!
