Dear Desert wanderers, I am working on having a second lead for Saturday to enable us to split the convoy thereby having two convoys this of course means we will be able to accommodate all of you in the waitlist, so watch this space as the week unfolds as we are confident we will be able to make this happen  

[Davie Smooth_Operator]

Dear desert Wanderers, @Aser,  @Sam Selim, @Alexanderrr, @J-P L, @Andrei S, @Steve Farmer, @Ahmed Farouk, @Krinesh, @Aggy22and @Zsolt, we are pleased to announce that @Looper has kindly agreed to take the wait list in a separate convoy, this will be meeting at the same place and we will meet up at the break, we have moved you guys to the new calendar event, and look forward to seeing you all in the sand on Saturday

See you all tomorrow!

Hi somehow I was not considered maybe some technical glitch as I applied for the waitlist on a fewbie drive - is there space for one more tomorrow? 

 

[Looper]

You waitlisted on the extended convoy. If you see the primary convoy just might be able to take you in. There should be a place somewhere.. drop by.
