:hehe:that as well, but the ban is because of the non indeginous spores that can pollute the rivers.

Ek het al baaie keer my "gat gesien" op die Vaal, met mt veld skoene. ( sien my avatar :lolo:

However, I "drifted" a damn sight more, as well as strained and stubbed toes, every time I waded with track shoes. :shk

Post by: Ziggy on September 09, 2010, 10:18:30 PM: There is a big difference between felt soled boots and "veld skoene" - mainy that there are a lot more of the latter ones in Vanderbijlpark!

You are SOOOO RIGHT.

Most of the Vuildriehoeker's wade barefoot. :hyst:
They may, put "Crocs" on, with their short shorts and " Maak my sterk lyk" hemp to go to the Mall. :shk

Post by: Ziggy on September 10, 2010, 08:24:54 AM: Tell me more about the "maak my sterk hemp"? We dont have them here in Dirtbin. Do they help you catch bigger fish?

Post by: nico on September 10, 2010, 08:31:13 AM: That is why we call a lot of the Vuildriehoekers Damduikers and Turftone :hehe:

A "help my sterk lyk" shirt is one with no sleeves, helps you look strong w;k

Post by: Ziggy on September 10, 2010, 08:43:10 AM: Now I understand - They tell me that in Vanderbylparkthey also make those shirts that can fit a very large pap, vleis and beer belly. I also understand that they make special shorts that manage to fit under that belly without falling off

The correct shorts to wear with a help my sterk lyk is those short, old blue rugby shorts. And either crocs or rugby socks and vellies.

Post by: Herman Jooste on September 24, 2010, 03:18:20 PM: Nico & Ziggy, Love your replies guys. :sml: So when did you leave the Vuildriehoek duh.
I used to live on the Bluff for 3 years. :crzy Now there are true blue people. What you see is what you get. No "pretence" whatsoever.
Some of my best friends are still there.
LOVE THAT PLACE. :win:
