OPPI KOPPI 2017

This year Oppi Koppi took place from 5 - 7 October.  Connor, Steph and Hennie drove down on the 4th after much planning and organizing.  Here is the "Welcome" e-mail Connor got

Haaallooo Connor

You imminent imbecile, you heralder of happiness, check dis: it’s the last of the last but not in the least. Vandag is vandag. Phuma phambili. If you are not moving forward, you are going nowhere.

We, the Mango Pickers, await you’s with open alms, presenting for your pleasure. Let your FOMO guide you and join us in the bowels of the first dust province of Azania on 5,6,7 October. Three days that are guaranteed to last a lifetime. Comes with a full service history, free hangover and genuine future prospects. No chancers please. Welcome to the sights and sounds of the Bushveld, or “How Mr Kudu got his horns”. She summons you, like the strident guitar solo that breaks the monotony of a thousand dusty cries of “Oppiiii----Koppiiii” and then, the lesser spotted Groenewalds arrive from Giyani, then you know: You can maar come. Nako ke nako.

And as for you, oh diffident one, your bucket list is getting shorter as the Nirvana nanny prepares to receive you at your home away from home, your happiness house where the nsako bush burns bright in the night. Fishing for a good time starts with throwing in the line and you can never ever chase yourself, so explore the opportunities and download our official app on Google Play or Apple. Hold on to your androids, go with the flow and take a glamorous guitar solo. It’s going to be OK.

We, the Mango pickers, will catch you in the tall grass.

So I have no stories to tell you about Oppi as "What happens at Oppi .... Stays at Oppi!!!" so I will share my favourite photos sent to me by Steph ...

If I didn't know better I would believe they were at Woodstock
