Steve, Steve, Steve....

Did you really think you could get away with secretly displaying Oly over here in the Union Jack Club? I have spies everywhere! LOL :-) :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

She looks great, Steve!!! Brilliant!!!!!!!

Just one comment though... actually regarding the base the groundcover (lichen?) should be browner and drier. Our vynbos (sort of like tundra?) is at best (and it's brightest) a olive or slate colour... but ususally it's just brown or a greyish-brown...

But enough nit-picking on an irrelevant point :-) :-) :-) :-) :-)

Once again.... beautiful!

Rudi

p.s. and just in time for SiyaAfrika
