Cockers just did a two week work trip to Swakopmund, Namibia. From chilly nights and very misty evenings and mornings at 11 deg till 9 or 10am then the sun is out and it warns up to 23 deg. Love coming to Swakopmund for the large variety of restaurants tourists and the locals.
F***y and Cockers will be doing an overlanding trip here in the very near future so that I can show F***y around this great place.
Stay tuned.

What an amazing place in the middle of the reserve at Mabalingwe. Memories flooding back to the old days when life seemed so much simpler.

We arrived at Punda Maria campsite and managed to secure a fence site. Close to a waterhole but no significant sightings for the two days at this camp. Ablutions were clean and neat and the little shop had everything we needed.

Some great sightings over the last couple of days in the Kruger. More stories and pics to follow.
This guy was chasing an Impala which I saw a way ahead of us then he followed down the small embankment and casually took a stroll along the road in front of us much to our enjoyment.

Watch our latest video on our 12 Volt Oven acquisition and the trials we ran at home before taking it into the bush for more testing and experimenting.
Thanks to George from Trans Africa Bush Gear for the oven and the tips he keeps passing on when cooking in this very versatile oven.

So, after our *very* chilly introduction to the camping fraternity 🥶❄️, we realised pretty quickly that if we didn’t make a plan, we’d soon be classified as frozen goods.

First order of business? Close off the awning for those delightful Gauteng winter months 🌬️—because clearly, “fresh air” is overrated when it feels like you’re camping in a freezer.

Then came the upgrade that changed everything: a gas heater 🔥. Suddenly, stepping into the caravan felt less like entering the Antarctic and more like… well, at least a mild spring day 😄.

Not stopping there (because we enjoy having circulation in our limbs), we added electric blankets 🙌—absolute game changers when the temperature dips into single digits and your bed feels like an ice tray 🧊.

Throw in a few thick fleece blankets 🛌, and just like that, you’re wrapped up tighter than a winter parcel—warm, snug, and almost forgetting that outside it’s basically a survival exercise 😅🔥.

If you’re enjoying the ride and keen to see more of the Old Geezers’ camping adventures 🚐🔥, give us a Like 👍, a Follow 👀, and share the journey with your mates 😄—because everything’s better when the whole camp’s invited!
