Random SMS posts from other challengers

The PDC group have set up a way for team members to post SMS (text messages) to a group list, called the "SMS Field Reports". I doubt that we'll have a phone to use to post to this service, but you never know. If we did text to this service, you would be able to read our messages at http://drewsweb.net/pdc04/pdc07/fieldrep/7458fr.htm, but we're not texting. At least, not that I know of.

Anyway, here are some random texts from the service (from other teams) to give you an idea what is going on:


· stayed in great campsite 27'27.70N 13'03.10W if you see red Dakar vehicle
in carpark on google earth. It belonged to someone else.

· Gaargh. No minibar. What is this; the 3rd world?

· drove wrong way today only realising when another team came towards us.
near laayoune on coast. expected tropical beach got windy cliffs
· nowhere appears to be safe from the relentless attention of the sand.
Camera lenses & teeth seem particular targets. And everything else.
