Thanks. I was in my element. I'd move to any of the Richtersveld, Namakwaland or Namibia in a heartbeat if I could... :)

My friend and I left Left TR in Kgalagadi on the 10th but we headed down to Williston and he went off to Redsands. He told me he had seen a Patrol camping there that night, mustve been you. He was in a P38 Rangie
Could very likely have been me. I saw a white P38 leaving Redsands. In fact, I think I left right behind him. I did not camp at Red Sands though - I normally grab a chalet there as I'm sort of between places. :biggrin:

If it was a metallic green, very, very dirty Patrol with RTT and stuff on the roof rack, that would have been me.
Awesome trip Ian. Need to make a plan to explore that side of the world. Indeed that was me in the Rangie, you passed me in Kuruman and then again just before Vryburg. Easy to spot a kitted trol when everything else is a lux or krooza :lol:
98 Rangie...
