Dear Desert Drivers, 

We have currently 15 candidates for the drive, and unfortunately,  I will not be able to accommodate everyone.

I'm bringing to your attention another Fewbie Plus drive at the same timing, lead by @Simon D.

Good morning @Mahesh_, I have shifted you to the other drive. You are now signed in for @Simon D's in Lisaili.

See you next time !

Dear Desert Drivers, 

Thank you for signing up for the drive on Saturday. Please double check your agenda, as we still have 4 drivers in wait list, and there is another FB+ drive Saturday morning with a lot of space available in Lisaili.

Whatever drive you decide to join, please ensure your car is in top condition. Please remove also unnecessary items from the back of the car, and ensure your off road  gears are securely strapped strapped in the trunk.

I will update tomorrow with the final attendance list, and convoy order.
