For the fact that you want me to locate the 5imba 5afari camp, how do I locate it? Confirm from them on how do I locate the place immediatedly so that I can proceed before today end up. Please be swift and get back to me. It should explain to me correctly so enable me locate the area without any more strees.

Be informing that I have already paid for another night today because there is no way to hang around and wait for them. Just confirm from them how do i locate their right this moment. 5imba 5afari camp which particular area do it located? At south cameroon or south west cameroon?

I have waited for your urgent mail and bus to come and pick me but you have not said any thing to me. Please am getting tired over this issue since yesterday. What is exactly going on? My hotel room has expired and I manage to pay for another one for staying there and wait for your bus today. I have asked many people were and how to locate Simba Safari camp and there is no one knows the area. They said that they have not heard such name in this Cameroon. Am getting afraid over it.

This is very serious because am somehow broke here at the Merina Hotel because of all the expenses I have been doing since yesterday. I have booked another cheapest room at the same MXXX Hotel, the room number is 307. Try to call the MXXX Hotel immediately and give assurance that you will come and pick me definitely today. The direct Merina hotel number isXX XX XX. I am expecting your urgent call.

I wait anxiously to hear good news from you.

Mr. Oloye Fanfare.

Dear Mister Fanfare,

I am sorry, but the shuttle has broken down and we shall not be able to provide you
with service. You missed the service yesterday, and on the way home, the bus had an axle break.
We can get that fixed by Sunday, if you prefer to wait.
An alternative is to catch a bus to Mundemba, which is close to the camp.
From there find a cab to bring you to Korup.

PLEASE RETAIN ALL YOUR RECEIPTS as this will enable us to remunerate you for your travel
expenses.

I am not surprised that no one in Yaounde has heard of our camp. Simba Safari Camp-Korup
is a very small and exclusive camp, and we are not wel known outside of Korup National Park.

Please write me to indicate your preferences in travel arrangements, ir call the central office in London.

Once again, I am very sorry for the delays. We shall reimburse all of your expenses when you arrive
so please retain all of your receipts.

Best regards,

Bernie

Can you urge him to get a SIM card for his phone? If he goes on the move and his money is running out you may lose contact. Of course it's not so easy for you to call him but you'll try.

Cameroon really is such a great safari destination.

I hear that there is a big storm on its way tonight, so mugu is going to have a nightmare travelling cross Cameroon tomorrow, as the road will literally be about 2 foot deep of red mud....... Twisted Evil

Where are those photos that we had of the Mundemba road Doc...?

I just sent him this:

Quote:

Dearest,

I have talked with the staff and they said that it is very simple to get here. Best way is to catch a bus to Mundemba, a town very close to the camp. Then you just need to find a taxi there and after a short ride you have arrived. Dear, I miss you so much and I finally want to see you so please try to get here today. Do you have your mobile phone with you? It would be good to get in contact with you during your journey to check if you can estimate your arrival time so I can arrange dinner for us.

I will be waiting, hope to see you soon
Fanny

He doesn't want to travel today Sad

. He was smart enough to check the travel time before departing:

Quote:

Dear,

I have investigated and confirmed that it will take me not less than 7 to 8hours to reached Mundemba and from their to the camp so It will be another night journey again. However, I suggest that I will take my leave early morning tomorrow being Friday 20th March 2009 to Mundemba and then to the camp. I am very disappointed in the hand of 5imba 5afari Camp since I come to this cameroon. I cannot see you again today till tomorrow, this is making me feel neglected.

Please I urge you to put everything in order and wait for me tomorrow. I have made a lot of expenses and I dont have tangible money with me but I pray that the one I have will lead me to the camp tomorrow. I have buy a sim card just for you to get me and it cost me a lot of money. You can call me with this number immediately, xx xx xx xx. Call me immediately. I really miss you.

Talk to you later,

.

Darling,

This is so disappointing, we will have only two full days together. Would you consider postponing your flight a couple of days, I will talk to the manager and request that 5imba will cover the costs that getting a new ticket or changing your present ticket will cause to you. This is least they can do, you have suffered so much that you have earned some compensation. My ticket is flexible, so I can easily change my flight through internet. Please consider this option and let me know how you feel.

I will try to call you as soon as possible, here is no reception so my mobile phone doesn't work. There is a phone in manager's office, but the door is locked and I have to wait for him to be able to use it.

I miss you so much,
Fanny

I just got off the phone with him. I mentioned that he could turn in his plane ticket for money if needed. Fanny will be happy to buy him another one as soon as she sees him.

With any luck, he will waste all his money and hire a cab, get arrested and maybe chopped to little pieces. I also hope the promise of good tretment will get this guy to splurge a little on the way in.

We can only hope! It does sound, though, like he is going further into this, hhaha, so it can't be good for him. Tomorrow will be another day!

Thank you for making the call redshoes17. I just listened the audio and and I just hope that he gets hungry and decides to take your kind offer.

Any call that starts with "where are you?" usually bodes well here.

He still has too much money if he can afford to sleep in a hotel.
He sounds upbeat talking to Fanny. Nothing can go wrong now.

I was laughing after the lions & tigers & bears line. I muted my mike and forgot to turn it back on.

Silence, another strategy for increasing lad pain <scribbles notes>

At some point Fanny would start to wonder if a penniless man is worth her efforts, no?

Great safari Deuzer. Very Happy

Wonderful call redshoes17!
You sounded so convincing and missing him so bad.
I'm sure he will try to get there now.
Although he doesn't want to be on the road at night anymore.
Maybe because of all the lions, tigers, and bears. Laughing

That was so funny.

I almost pity this guy.

Safari baiting is such fun... for us.

Yep, that's the photo of the Mundemba road Doc, lovely isn't it... Very Happy

And here is the info centre:

We need to get your lad moving off to the chimpanzee camp quickly. He needs to tell them he wants to go to the chimpanzee camp. Thats 4 miles walk in the bush. If he asks for $imba SC, well, they have had a few lads show up, fruitlessly looking for SSC, so the key is for him NOT to linger long, and be insistent to get to the chimpanzee camp.

Posted: Thu Mar 19, 2009 7:35 pm

It sure warms my heart to think of this lad heading deeper into the bush.

Simba, this is an awesome modality! Thank you for letting me help to manage it.
