| Smoko,
I’m considering it, my issue is that the lecturer is somewhat entrenched in the old theories regarding iSandlwana. So I might be at variance with some of his conclusions.
If I do go I will endeavour to get some descendants along.
Are booking a ticket?

| Frank,
There are folk here who are more than interested with the current building situation, or lack of it. Others, within KZN, who are attempting to use their influence to propose a repositioning of the project to the plateau. So we would appreciate up-to-date photographs please.
Smoko,
I wouldn’t tread on your toes, she’s all yours.

| Hi JY & Frank I'm also keen to see what's happened with the building since I was there , I would be very interested to see some pics . I don't know why they didn't use the Plateau in the first place , if it has to be somewhere stick it there , not on the bloody Battlefield ! 90th
PS . Be nice Frank ....that's JY's fault , he spoils her rotten at the dinner table ! hahahahahaha |
