I recieved an email this week asking me to do some work in Ethiopia! :shock:

Anyone know much about the country? The war with Somali serperatist rebels and Ethiopia's past volatility suggest I should consider this decision carefully! :lol:

I read this and thought hmmm I wonder if it's somebody with 5 million dollars they're trying to get out of the country :roll:

How do you know Hoff? Ever been to Ethiopia? Might be just like Asia where they ride shitloads of motorbikes, albeit mostly postie type bikes. Suggest roads might have a tendency towards land mines or potholes though but you're fairly agile on a bike Marty, go for it I reckon

Make a stamp with a difference in the passport if nothing else

I think Hoff was more commenting on Marty's love of riding everywhere he goes and the fact that there is an ocean between Aus and Africa - hence "you can't ride there", you'd have to fly!
