I am currently residing in Oudtshoorn in SA having hired a car with a couple of guys from London to go on a road trip, the last few days have been really hectic and hence no blog activity but I have 15 mins now so here's a quick summary...

Weds - wrote a blog. Went the hostel bar about 1pm. Departed shortly before midnight having had a brief break for dinner with about half a dozen people I've met in the hostel.

Thurs - hired a car with four other people (Silverback, Pops, Flintoff and Tabs) and went for a drive along the Cape Peninsula to the Cape of Good Hope and Cape Point. Highlights of the day included seeing baboons, ostriches and giant guinea pigs (again) in the wild.

Now to Thurs night. Well a quick trip into the hostel bar inevitably turned into another mammoth session. Climaxing in a whole bunch of us ending up smashed in a place called 'The Dubliner' and busting some serious moves on the dancefloor - me and Flintoff did a particularly long stint (for the avoidance of doubt Flintoff is german girl called Frederike)... well the night ended with me reaching my bed at 5am...

Fri - awoken at 8am by Pops trying to make me climb up Table Mountain again. The observant of you will note that 8am is 3hours after I reached my bed - you won't be surprised to learn that my response included a few expletives....

When I finally reached a reasonable hour to arise from my pit me and a few others went down to the Waterfront in Cape Town to do a tour of the stadium that is being built for the world cup. After a bite to eat and a trip to the Aquarium we arrived back at the hostel at 4pm - yes we forgot we had set out to do the stadium tour. Anyway we slipped into the hostel bar for one... left at 3am some what intoxicated...

Sat - me and four others staying in the hostel bought a package deal to see a rugby game at Newlands. A particularly good time was had by all and a highlight was a fantastic rendition of 'Come on Eileen' in the van on the way back...

Sun - what a day. On this day we went cage diving with Great White Sharks in the ocean. The was one of the best things i have ever done by miles. The enormous sharks were come inches from my face in the cage and on a couple of times started thrashing against the cage. It was brilliant! I think I will do it again before I leave...

Today - Have checked out of the Hostel in Cape Town and am on a little road trip with Pops and Silverback. Currently residing in a town called Oudtshoorn. We didn't arrive until this evening so have just had a few quiet beers today, I'll update you on what get tomorrow as soon as possible...

Miss you people.
