<div id="ygrps-yiv-1974660609">well the tour did arrive in bwanaland this morning as<br/>
promised<br/>
<br/>
& of course zoomed straight in to our great bwana zoom<br/>
zoo<br/>
the bwnazmzw quadripoint <br/>
or quadriarea if anyone prefers<br/>
only to find it had been chopped in two<br/>
& i think very sensibly so<br/>
by the borderbase google earth magical mystery<br/>
itinerary<br/>
<br/>
bwnazm to the west or upstream first <br/>
or rather actually second <br/>
as i will explain<br/>
& then bwzmzw to the east or downstream second <br/>
or rather actually fourth as it happens<br/>
because <br/>
for alphabetical reasons <br/>
bwnaza has in fact been made the first of the botswana<br/>
stops <br/>
& bwzazw has been inserted as the third botswana stop <br/>
directly in between the 2 halves of the quadripoint<br/>
in our orderly sequence of all 4 botswana tripoints<br/>
<br/>
& it will be a lot easier to deal with it or them this<br/>
way<br/>
<br/>
just kidding of course<br/>
<br/>
<br/>
but there is this burgeoning notion<br/>
thanx to the closer scrutiny of the quadriarea that<br/>
has been brought to bear by the kazungula bridge<br/>
project <br/>
that our dear quadripoint is indeed separated just so<br/>
into 2 tripoints <br/>
& at a distance of perhaps a couple hundred meters<br/>
<br/>
but of course i mean without bwzazw so crudely<br/>
inserted in the breach<br/>
<br/>
as reported for example here<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.dur.ac.uk/ibru/news/boundary_news/?itemno=4652&rehref=%2Fibru%2F&resubj=Boundary+news%20Headlines">http://www.dur.ac.uk/ibru/news/boundary_news/?itemno=4652&rehref=%2Fibru%2F&resubj=Boundary+news%20Headlines</a><br/>
<br/>
at the same time<br/>
it is also becoming increasingly clear that the bridge<br/>
project is increasingly all talk & posturing but no<br/>
real action<br/>
as revealed in high relief here for example<br/>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://allafrica.com/stories/200609080647.html">http://allafrica.com/stories/200609080647.html</a><br/>
<br/>
so we can be thankful for all the gratuitous attention<br/>
that has been bestowed upon the multipoints<br/>
but we shouldnt really be expecting a bridge<br/>
at least not right here & not anytime soon<br/>
<br/>
& having gotten that off my chest<br/>
i think it will be best if we do repair directly to<br/>
the first & third stops first<br/>
& only then return here to the second & fourth<br/>
second<br/>
<br/>
so please be looking out for my next message<br/>
entitled bwnaza & bwzazw<br/>
where the botswana portion of the great world class<br/>
tripointing tour will finally begin in earnest<br/>
before again jumping out of order in earnest too<br/>
