On one of my first outside calls after arriving in South Africa, the
directions were down the road for 3km, take the first dirt road and drive
down until you see the first "windmill" - now coming from England and used
to seeing European Windmills that is what I was looking for... not the 20
or so windmills I passed - a fan blade on top of a pylon... and there were
no cell phones in those days to get help... ho hum.
