Heard this tale this morning....
Turns out one of the empty mine houses that was recently renovated, with new carpets got raided by vandals....
The offroad club wanted to rent a few of the mine houses for visitors taking part in this weekend 's Diamond 300 rally..... on inspecting the houses it appears that some person had broken into the recently renovated house, taken a stanley knife and cut the brand new carpets out of the floor....
Two things spring to my mind......
1) Roll on proclamation, it will only get worse......
2) If the mine reduced the rental on the houses or market them on the outside for rental, we would have more people "looking" after the buildings.....
Just a thought, I wonder if the criminals will be caught, I reckon those carpets have passed Windhoek already....
eazy peazy ,, bribe the right official ...
Strange thing yesterday Andrew and myself where diving home from check point that afternoon at about 3pm Andrew said to me "check that out......... I wonder where they got that carpet from" I answered him proberly from the salvage yard.................... he said no it can't be they only do auctions.........................maybe it was the same guys thet where walking past the park accross from the mine store.....................
