It is: Cango Wildlife Ranch, cheetah conservation foundation, endangered species breeding facility, Oudtshoorn, Garden Route, South Africa

I am working there - so for all I know I might have seen you before ....

Not unless you were working there in 1995

Small world eh?

I wasn't - was working at the Cango Caves .

For all I know you have been there as well - most people visiting this area have.

Small world indeed ...

Burgey · 13-01-2011, 12:33 AM

Yep. Went there too

Great part of the world.

I love it here ... great part of the country to grow up your kids too. Just a tat hot this time of the year ....

Was a tour guide at the time. Hopefully you weren't on my tour. Couldn't speak proper English, never mind Australian ...

Burgey · 13-01-2011, 12:43 AM

That's all right mate, I couldn't understand it anyway!

Did the Garden Route trip from Cape Town to PE.. Was fantastic.

Great to hear you enjoyed it. Did you come to watch cricket? Also cricket in this part of the country is somewhat under developed, it's played with a lot of passion, as I, as an ump of the lower leagues, can attest.

Burgey · 13-01-2011, 12:57 AM

Yes. Made my international debut that series.

Nah mate, just a holiday. Was awesome really.

Oh - test not over yet? It is. Australia has lost. Had nobody found the courage to tell you yet? Incredible. Well - they have lost.

But since you have nothing to add either - what are you doin' here?

benchmark00 · 13-01-2011, 01:22 AM

I think the World Cup is coming up, shouldn't you ****s be practicing the heimlich maneuver?
