We wanted to have dinner on Saturday at Rheinholds in Clanwilliam, but they have a total restaurant booking so will be dining at Dam Bistro as reccomended by our hosts at Saint du Barrys, but if you are ever in Clanwilliam you will not go wrong with Rheinholds, likewise you will not go wrong with Saint du Barrys for a B&B stay.
We went to the Knysna Motor Show on Saturday, very good, with cars from the 1920's to 2015 a fantastic range of MG's (TD's, TF's MGA's MGB's, Sunbeams, Triumph's, Fords, Buicks, Cadillacs, Bentleys, Rolls Royce's, Ferrari's Aston Martin's and many more as well as Norton, BSA's, AJS motor bikes it was definitely a walk down memory lane. Could not buy one as anyone you asked said no they were not for sale, talk about "boys and their toys" Really sorry I left my camera at home. The event was very well supported and 5 charities will benefit.
From Friday to Sunday this week we have the Jaguar Simola Hill Climb will try and see some action on Friday they have timed races for veteran cars to modern Ferrari"s, Masseratti's and of course Jaguars and special races for the ladies, no comments!
We are trying to find out if we can use our credit/cheque cards to pay for fuel, well it seems that cash is the king in Namibia with a few exceptions anyone know differently? Last time we were there some accepted cards others wanted cash. However one can get cash from ATM's, to fill my car one would not get much change from R2000 so it is a bit of a pain.
The list of things to do is getting shorter with items such as Beers, Water, Batteries charged, maps, torches, barter items, bound to forget something heaven forbid, better not be the beers.

I'm sitting ready to follow you here. Enjoy the trip.
