Re: Barberton Tie in the Dots 2014
We attended a birthday bash at Mlilwane this past weekend. Went in at Bulembu and then down to Pigspeak and round to Mbabane, then Mlilwane. Yip, I agree with Cats, it is a nice country and well worth a visit.

Re: Barberton Tie in the Dots 2014
Well.....I had a look last night.
Planning something like this.
*Leave a few days earlier (Tuesday maybe).
*Enter Swaziland @ Amsterdam.
*Drive south to north (not sure what, where and when)
*Don't book....see where we end up and look for accommodation (out of peak season so this should be ok I guess?)
*Exit Swaziland Friday afternoon and head over to Barberton for the dots trip.
*Leave Barberton Sunday morning.....head home so that SWAMBO can start studying for her Exam that Friday.
Any suggestions?
CATS....is snoopy on track to be fixed by end September? I need to get my spare wheel cover from you....in Barberton. It seems we can't meet up in Pretoria so will have to give Barberton another try.![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

Cats,
You are the backbone of our little cyber community, it would be great if you and Snoopy can make it.

I'll be making a few phone calls this weekend to see if I can get us to tie in a few dots along an old wagon track this time round:twisted:

Calls were successfull. The guide will take Frik and myself for a scout on the first Sat of Aug. We'll take both our Pajeros as the guide insists on a backup vehicle. Looks like all systems go for a new route on a different part of the mountain.

Re: Barberton Tie in the Dots 2014
We will commit for the weekend. We decided to do the Swaziland trip and join you in Barberton on the Friday.
Will get the rooftop tent mounted first week in Aug. Pajero will go for a service in the next week or two when it's due.
Looking forward to this trip. 3rd time lucky I hope.
