About Thanks to Keith we got on the road with the verhicle again,
but Arif, Tony and Dan pushed so hard that Julie, Keith and me were falling over sitting in front:)))
Of course Bangee went for help!!

To see the start of this story read Keith's comment on my 'You drive or I drive' shot some days ago

Wishing you a great day and drive safe!! xxJen

Quote "Isn't it great how these 3 man, Keith, Dan and Tony blame each other for parking the car there,
men just can't drive..lolll".

How could we be driving if we were pushing ;-), sounds like blame diversion to me.

Isn't it great how these 3 man, Keith, Dan and Tony blame each other for parking the car there,
men just can't drive..lolll
It was really ver desolate over there, its a boring long road from Windhoek to Sossusvlei,
passing the Capricornline, just in the middle of nowhere and very hot, this guard must have felt terrible not being able to sit inside the car:))
Be well my sweet friend, its almost bedtime here,
wishing you a lovely and sunny weekend!!!
Big hugs and kisses, Jenxx

Sleep well again, sweet dreams! Hugs Jenxx

When Keith tipped the car over he should have waited unitl the girls had got out first, Julie could ahve split her wine. I thought it was a bit rude though that we had to buy our own beers Tony, because Jen had promised to buy them for us :-(

Tony Growden   {K:976} 5/29/2008
Oh come on Dan. Tell the truth! It was all our fault! We let the car go to nip into the Pub knowing full well that with Keith sitting on the handbrake and Bangee driving they had no way of stopping without us.
And Jen, what I lack in strength I make up for in good looks so I have it all over Keith.
I actually thought that was the girls way of changing a flat when we came back out of the Pub - Bit extreme but effective.
no worries we will soon be on the road again.
Hugs
Tony

Dan Wilson Dan Wilson   {K:21104} 5/29/2008
He, he, he!!! Too many back seat drivers ;-), or maybe it was a hand brake slide that caused us to tip over. Thank's Keith, it's all your fault because you must have been sitting on the handbrake. I hope we didn't spill any of our alcohol.

The most likely story is Arif, Tony and myself got so excited when we saw the pub just around the corner that we pushed too hard ;-). Darling Jen, I am still waiting for my beer

Hi Jen,
like I could best express in Dutch :
"Ik ben er helemaal ondersteboven van".
I guess you caused the crash in a nearly safe traffic situation on a boring stretch ... as just for making another great shot,
je t'embrasse, bisous
Paul

Dat zou inderdaad kunnen ja, ik denk ook dat degene in slaap is gevallen waarschijnlijk, de weg was niet heel erg slecht en ook ik heb nog veel ergere ongelukken gezien, maar ik blijf me maar afvragen.....;)))

Men with too much muscles, I would love to see this...loll However Keith looks very strong, but I doubt if his brother has the same strenght, thats why they had to push together..lolll
No, it wasn't my car sweety, we passed it on the way to Sossusvlei in Namibia, this was just before the sign of the Steenbokskeerkring, you have been there so you know this raod I guess:))
But was the guard for watching people wont steal the tires etc, he was quite relaxed smoking his sigarette, while the owner I guess went for help.....
I neither like thunderstorms my dear, we didnt have them yet, but I used to be very very scared laying under my bed even...terrible isnt it:)
Hope its all better now there? Its warm and humid still, making me very tired, big hugs and kisses, hope you will sleep well tonight!! Jenxx

Well, Julie doesnt agree with you at all I'm afraid dear Keith, but you both have to fight over that as I was sitting at the window taking my shots outside and having Bangee on MY lap;))
So; there will be policerapport I'm afraid and
poor Dan, Tony and Arif will have to explain what happened;)) Thanks for liking the story, you might hope it was Bangee licking your ear, might have been Julie biting you though......lolllll
Big hugs and kiss, Jenxx

hahahahhahahahhaha!!!!! I am laughing so hard here Jen with the story telling of this image. Great stuff.
Well what I think what happened was, Keith was driving, I was drinking wine (as usual..haha), Arif, Tony and Dan kept yelling "Julie pass the wine" and I wouldn't so they got really mad and pushed us really hard and Bangee got all upset and bit Keith's ear and he lost control of the car and got us all in this mess we see ourselves now...hahahahahaha!
Great shot dear friend. Very nice clarity and the driver "posing" for you just made this perfect!
Big hug and kiss,
Julie.

Mogelijk is ie een tijd over de talud gereden en pmgeslagen of een plotselinge draai aan t stuur. Ik werkte een tijd in t midden oosten en daar zag je ook de meest gekke dingen. Regel 1: nooit afvragen wat er gebeurd is ;-)

Steenbokskeerkring, nee hoor niks mee te maken :-)

Thanks God that you had Bangee...LOL!!!Your men had too much muscles:)))I hope that you all were ok...LOL!!!!I'm sure that Keith was on the wheel...hahahaha!!!
Great capture, and I hope that it was not your car Jen??? The roads are not always very good to drive.It's good that the driver seems to be safe...!!!
We had this night very bad thunderstorms with hail and lots of rain.It took ages until it was finish.I don't like thunderstorm:((!

Yes Jen. Was a bit of a shock. Arif, Tony and Dan got up a bit of speed but Not sure what happenned. I thought Julie was steering. Everything got confusing there for a minute :)) Anyway, we all ended up in a heap on top of each other and Bangee was licking my ear. Well i think it was. I did enjoy it all lol. Great shot Jen. Always be in my memory :))) Hugs xxxx Keith:) :)

Dat zou ik wel willen jarige job!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY again!!! @->-->--

Was wel waanzinnig om zomaar een auto op de kop te zien liggen, waar echts nietssss was, geen verkeer, geen mensen, geen huizen...denk dat de driver in slaap was gevallen of zo.....het was wel vlak de Steenbokskeerkring, maar of dat ermee te maken had? :))

Jen van Wijn Jen van Wijn   {K:24075} 5/29/2008
Uhmmmmmm...uhmmmm....dont want to blame anyone dear Rif, we were just talking too much I guess and looking at the beautiful scenery which made
us not look well at the road..:(
Maybe it was Bangee who was laying on my lap and saw a male dog on the road??? Hahaaaaaa
Have a lovely and quiet day, drive safe!!
Big hugs and kiss, Jenxx

This watchman has to stand there for ages as there was nothing around, no houses or trafic, I still wonder sometimes how this was ending..
It was indeed a new car and the driver went of to get help, what amazes me is how can a car end up like this in the middle of nowhere....:))
Be safe and enjoy your day dear Mus, hugs Jenxx

Jen van Wijn Jen van Wijn   {K:24075} 5/29/2008
Thanks dear Paolo, It was amazin to pass on this quiet road, no one around at all, and seeing this car on its back....:) Its a South African car driving in Namibia, so amazing and this guy is a guard as they will steel the wheels and anything if you just leave it there, the driver was gone, I suppose to get some support to turn the car back again:)
Have a great day, Jenxx
