Good evening to you all,

I have already said, in one of the threads, that the yellow ribbon is, and can be even more, a powerful promotional symbol.
I personally liked it a lot and happy to know you do.

Departing tomorrow and

tomorrow lucky man

We donated a pair of binocs to a ranger in Skukuza at the start of the month.

Just got back from my three week SA/KNP tour and happy yo have handed over my two pairs of binocs and 10 USB (2GB) keys.
Hope to be able to get my "friends" to contribute for more binocs in the near future.

Morning fellow formites.

Another set of new Nikon bino's donated


and a collection of 2 GB memory keys

All will be handed over by our kind bert at Skukuza.
Thank you again bert and hope you have a wonderful trip.

Andy, with a unique logo as well
Txs, will take care of the delivery

We handed over 5 pairs (4 pairs 10x50 1 pair 10x25) of binoculars and 4 bird books (1 Roberts 2x Sasol 1x Newmans all new editions) to KNP in June. hope they are of assistance.

Wingman, very generous donation!

I have a pair of 8 x 10 binocs that worked fine when I was in the Kruger in Sept. When I got home (Canada) though, I found that my suitcase must have been severely banged around because when looking through the binocs the two fields don't quite merge into one. I'm very hesitant to give someone binocs with this problem but would these be better than nothing? I'm going back (to Kruger) in January so will take them with me.
What do you forumites think?

Morning Alto, my opinion is not to take them with you!
When that happens to binocs it's because the two prism's are no longer aligned and they become are of little use in the field. A real pity!

Alto
Think outside the box!
Cut them in half and donate two monoculars.

I need a pair of used binoculars, after the use in KTP I can leave them there for whoever you wish

Micetta, can be arranged!!!!!!

Rumuruti, I think I agree with you. I think it's worse to have double vision than no magnification . I would take my binocs in my carry on luggage but all the space is taken up by my camera equipment

JDW - maybe if I just drop them again the prisms will line up and I won't have to cut them in half (don't laugh - I did try knocking them but it didn't help).
