mate, grab me some sturgeon will ya?

Listen closely SA is a very dangerous place for mongering for white guys if you don't know your way around Even in the old days a vsit to The Ranch in Sandton could go badly wrong on your drive home. As for the private houses, forget it if they don't know you. Just don't think about it in J'Burg unless your mates can fix you up. Best bet is stick to Cape Town, a few decent brothels around Long Street, amd you will still get home with your wallet and your life intact

I arrive Dec 24th for 10 days PM me and we'll get a crew together for this trip M

would not poke them with yours mate

This guy Steve has an agenda that he is hiding - we want to know what it is? Maybe the security guy wouldn't go short-time with him? I think we should be told....

No, I have no connection to this hotel and I don't play golf although I will admit that I have seen the owner - oldish guy from England - sitting at the bar sometimes Anyway, I agree that this forum is here for people to exchange news, views & information -

Steve You have really got a bug up your ass here Chill out man

well I am booked in and will arrive tomorrow for my 9th/10th stay as I said before, I have always had a great time, and I think the rooms are fantastic- though you can always get cheaper elsewhere what can I say?

I think that there is a lot of price volatility right now - the Europe/SEA routes typically see low capacity utilization at this time of year, whilst on the other hand the airlines are being killed by gas prices two key things to remember 1. Airlines actively manage their pricing according to demand, so its worth checking the websites every day 2. It is way cheaper to buy round trip tickets strting from LOS; I went BKK-LHR-BKK for THB 22k two weeks ago

I always stay at the Whitehouse, in a deluxe suite, and they are fantastic rooms - never had a problem of any kind

I was in last night (Saturday) at 10 and it was dead. Now, 10pm is not when you would expect to be busy anyway, but I will make a few hopefully constructive suggestions 1. You need way more billboard guys out on the street, facing in both directions, to catch the trade. I walked past twice before I actually found the way in and I was looking for the place 2. I sat at the bar but maybe I should have been offered a food menu? 3. The place is a cavern with a stunning view and a lovely breeze - you either need to fill it up (with music, people, action) or tone it down into a much more intimate venue (lower the lights etc.) 4. There is masses of space between the bar and the outer terrace and this is kind of a 'dead zone'. Maybe fill it up with some big sofas around coffee tables and generate a 'hang-out and smooch/schmooze' area Great location - all power to you Cheers Martin

Business Class China Airlines Taipei to LAX (or maybe SFO - forget) about 6 months ago - excellent in every respect - way better than most falang airlines
