Toyota Fortuner update
I actually don’t have much to say about it. There are things happening, and people are still writing to me. I also had a Fortuner D-4D 4×4 that I purchased in October 2008. At the stage I asked the Toyota dealer if the instability problem was sorted out and I was told that there are [...]

Letter from a reader; another Fortuner accident.
As I previously stated, I do receive emails from people regarding their Fortuner stories. Sometimes I receive an email which horrifies me. I have no way to verify these mails, but then again I can’t see people going through all the trouble to send me these mails if they were not true. I received this [...]

I was driving down a dirt road in Warmbaths, while it was raining, at approx 70km/h. My vehicle skidded in the slippery road, as I tried to pull the vehicle back on track I lost total control and it started rolling. Fortunately the body of the vehicle is strong and no one got seriously hurt. [...]

Toyota Fortuner complaints received – 11
I don’t forward these messages to Toyota any more, as I never hear anything back from them. So, no point in taking to someone who’s not interested in listening to their customers. This was received from a D4D owner. Had car less than a year – experiencing same problems as others on the website-bumpy and [...]

Completion
Three sessions and nearly 3 hours later, and the outlining was done. It started looking amazing. I contemplated stopping it for the day, as it started getting painful. Rob said the shading won’t take long, and won’t be as painful. As the ever optimist, I thought this meant about 10-20 minutes. Clearly my brain was [...]

The first lines
So here Rob, the best tattoo artist on the planet, make his debut in the story called “The torture of Kaptein Caprivi”. Rob started with the outline, as at the very least I had to sit through completing the outlines. If not, then this tattoo would be a complete mess, as you can never get [...]

The stencel is the outline of the tattoo, and help the tattoo artist (also known as The Torturor) get the drawing correctly onto your arm. This part is absolutely vital, escpecially in my case, as the tattoo was so complicated. This took [...]

The first step towards tattoo bliss

Sjef Philip Pretorius is ‘n man met ‘n stem. ‘n Grote. Ek ken Philip al ‘n ruk. Eers as ‘n luidrugtige ondersteuner van rock musiek toe hy ‘n klient by Dorpstraat Teater in Stellenbosch was, toe later as sjef daar. Nog later as eienaar, en deesdae die kos man by Poplars Restaurant by D’Aria buite Durbanville.
Philip het die gewoonte om homself in te werk by shows. Glo dit of nie, maar dit gaan nie altyd saam met wyn nie. Hier is hy, saam met sy vriende Klopjag op die verhoog by Dorpstraat. Hy doen ‘n meaaaaaaan Eddie Vedder.
