One last lunch...
Having lost one of our tour group - one of our sponsors met up with a farmer in Pretoria, headed off with him to shoot some game and wasn't seen again - we packed up and headed off to the airport.
Unbeknown to us, we had one final function to attend. We took a detour to Pirates Rugby Club to find yet another marquee, decked out with Castle Lager branding. Inside the marquee was a fundraising lunch with Jason Leonard, Peter Winterbottom and Fergus Slattery as special guests and a whole heap more free Castle Lager.
After yet another liquid lunch - just in case we hadn't drunk enough over the last fortnight - we finally made it to the airport to make our sorry way home. Amazingly, our sponsor turned up at the airport, looking like Bear Gryllis. When quizzed on what he'd been up to for the last three days, he tiredly replied "Driving around in a Jeep, drinking Bacardi and shooting sh*t!"
Only in South Africa!
