- I am indeed running the G2P. Only thing is, is that I want to use it on the day so need to have it charged. Will you be able to charge it for me? Text me when you get back to Mzanzi & we'll chat...

- Hi Andrew
I went into what my wife calls my toy box & I call my gear room to bring out & dust off the Yellowbrick only to find her missing. Then I had a rare flash of memory & was relieved that you have her. At least I hope you do.
If possible could you courier or send her back to me?
Postal: P O Box 815, MOOI RIVER, 3300
Physical: Genesis Gym, Gowrie Village, R103, Nottingham Road.
Thanks

- Hi Andrew
Perfect; I'll have Laura, the charger and some instructions couriered to your address. I'll send it Monday so it will be with you Tuesday at the latest. I'm really envious; I've been training for this for ages. Just make sure you break that record:)

We started at about 4:05 on Saturday morning in damp mist, wind and the dark. By the chain ladders, we had turned off our t… Continue
