Re: Some kinda social in jhb?
Another idea iv been kicking around guys how bout the guys who are interested in the gatherings make a list of the areas they stay in not addresses or details plz for safety reasons. And i then attempt to triangulate a central position that we can do our socials at, keeps travelling down and allows everyone an option to attend without having to undertake the great trek?

I would also like to join in. I'm near Roodeplaat dam in Pta.
Or should the Pta boys arrange their own get together?
