Of wine ships and flame-throwers

Lyn went off to AfrikaBurns last weekend in the hope of picking up some basic survival skills to see us through the Put Foot Rally. For the uninitiated AfrikaBurn is pretty much an African version of Burning Man in the US.. A stern warning from the organisers states: “YOU VOLUNTARILY ASSUME THE RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH BY ATTENDING THIS EVENT ... You must bring enough food, water, shelter and first aid to survive for a week in a harsh environment.

We’re not sure whether she learnt anything but she did come home with some pretty far-fetched stories of wine ships and fire-breathing dragons, as well as some new crazy ideas as to how we can decorate Constance our rally vehicle.

Option 1: Grass 


Option 2: Silver bug - pretty sure that's a Conquest like our Constance under there

Option 3: Wine ship - 2000 litres of wine on tap, how can you go wrong?


Option 4: Tank (flame thrower optional)
