After my memory was jogged by another thread on this site, I am revising my list:

1: Cora's cafe
2: Camera Club
3: Affenrucken
Oranjemund from 1976 to 2004

No! No! Sandy...It was the mother of all bunkers.....

When you come home in April, you and I will head over to the said bunker, with a bottle of Jagermeister.... and a taost will be made.... to The joys of youth, imagination and to the buggers that built that bunker for us............

I thought our masked wonder would have chosen the horse riding club as his/her favourite spot?

Sandy, that "German bunker" may have been an explosives magazine. The diamond deposits in the south were only discovered in 1928, long after the Germans had relinquished their diamond mining operations which were centered around Luderitz. Another explanation. It may just well have been a German military outpost built before or during the First World War.
Kind regards
