That is some serious camping there! More than the kitchen sink  - how big is the convoy to carry all that stuff!

[Tsutsuma]

We are normally 2 or 3 boats. We have a group that come for the first week and they help tow everything and help set up camp. full day job.
Then every week a different "team" arrives and fishes for that week. Last week we break up again.

Ja Carlos...those were a couple of years ago when we still had Olympic..our legend boat. you can see on the freezer etc. Now she sit at the back of the ski-boater magazine for sale

I asked them to remove the name but they bloody didn't.

Anyway, when my ship comes in we will have another "Olympic", she will be resurrected

For now "Blackie" will have to do and I will never sell her, she is a  lovely little boat.

Hopefully these will keep them little vervet monkeys on there toes for a while.

I would suggest that you change their colour - no African monkey would believe that those are snakes!

That is correct - I have seen Monkeys even grab at un-natural looking plastic snakes as they knew they were fake.

lol, those worked on my thatch roof house for the first week....now if I place them they play with them....if you change the color they are quite wary

[MIKE PIKE]

     .. maybe they will think they are some new species from G.P and be a bit wary.

Is that your crew Rory?

Is that your crew Rory?

yes and I have knife so watch it 

[Ziggy]

You got to watch those guys! Many years ago, I was with my wife and her mother at Cape Point. My mom-in law (an artist) was painting and my wife (a writer) was sitting on a rock reading (final edit befeore going to the typesetters) the final manuscript of a book she was writing at the time. I was about 150 meters away taking photographs. Now, in those days there were no computers, and the manuscript was real "cut and paste" - lots of typewritten pages and handwritten notes pasted together (18 months of work), a huge raggedly pile of papers (and no back up copy).

Suddenly a very large baboon ran up to her and tried to grab the manuscript from her hands - a tug of war ensued with my wife screaming obscenities at the baboon  - both her and the baboon refused to let go of the manuscript. I must let you know that my wife even scared of birds, so I was really impresed when she bravely battled that baboon - she was not letting the manuscript out of her hands, even if it was a lion on the other side. Eventually, she gave the baboon a sideways kick and it let go ansd scampered off down the path.

By the time I got to where my wife was, the battle was over - and my wife was still screaming at the baboon (stuff I have never heard her say since!). I think that that baboon still has burning ears

My assumption was that the baboon thought she had a paper bag full of edible goodies in her hands.

I dont think that the little monkeys of Vidal are as bad as those baboons!

best way to aviod monkeys at vidal is

step 1- as soon as mussel craker turns his back make a grab for his salt and vinger crisps you need to be sharp cause he luvs his salt and vinger crisps

step 2 -hide the above mentioned crisps under neighbors ground sheet  leave  a               trail of crisps so the monkeys find them

step 3-sit back open beer and injoy the show as MC runs around trying to get his crisps back keeping the monkeys busy and thus out your tent
