Nice bus, and pics. But I still can not get used to the driving on the wrong side of the road.

I know, but I didn't initially plan to come back through Robertson. I had to shoot up to Barrydale and went via Swellendam and only later realised when I took the differnt road back that I actually am going through Robertson.

I will be going up again soon and will drop it off when I am in the area.

@ watercool.....we drive on the right side of the road ! you guys drive on the wrong side ! :lol: :lol:
if you think about it...we drive in a clockwise motion we leave on the left and return on the right....
you guys do everything anti-clockwise !! :lol:
why do screws/bolts/nuts and most things that fasten turn clockwise then ??

No the big question is which way does the water in the toilet spin when you flush.

I have driven on both sides of the road and it takes a few days to adapt, th big thing is just when you have to make a turm, you got to remember which side to go to. And then the shifter on a manual can catch you too. Left or right hand shift = push or pull.

When driving left hand drive I find the biggest challenge is remembering not to change gear with the window winder. :lol:
