On Thursday, August 28, 1980 (while nursing a blend of conjunctivitis and flu) I had a major motor accident. At the time I was a conscript serving with the 7th SA Infantry Battalion, had returned from Ondangwa in the South West African "Operational Area" on June 28, and was posted to 7 SAI's base camp in Phalaborwa before returning to "The Border". A very pleasant chap by the name of Johann Grove had just returned to Namibia, and asked me whether I would drive his car home to Johannesburg for him. I agreed and was joined by Ingo Eggers and Jan Viljoen who shared the fuel costs with me. On that fateful Thursday we left Phalaborwa, heading for Pretoria, and my diary picks up the story on the R101:
Pass. On a detour road between Nylstroom and Warmbaths I got blinded by a truck's headlights, misjudged a right-hand corner, drifed, corrected, drifted across the road, hit an irrigation ditch and rolled the Mazda 323, 1300cc four times. Landed on the roof. Three of us OK. Car a total write-off. Lucky to be alive. Hiked home (accident at 06:10 pm).
Incredibly, we hitchhiked back to Pretoria in full military "step out" uniform, covered from head to toe in petrol, squashed banannas, mashed avocado pears, lager beer and red Transvaal dust. My neck has never been the same since, and I apologise to Ingo and Jan if they have had any long term side effects. Sadly for me, this was not to be my last accident for the weekend. Two days later, on the night of Saturday, August 30, 1980 I was a passenger in another rolling car on the corner of Crown Avenue and Lawley Street in Waterkloof, Pretoria. But that's another story...
I took this photograph on Monday, September 1, 1980 at the Warmbad Scrap Yard at 1 Industria Road in Warmbaths on my way back to base after an insane weekend. FYI, here's the route of the R101 between Nylstroom and Warmbaths.

The original pouch was in abysmal condition and shedding black flecks everywhere. So here's a useful idea for storage as this mini SLR doesn't fit in regular compact cases as the lens sticks out too far.
There's room for two spare films and potentially a fourth lens ( I've got the standard trio of 18mm, 24mm and 50mm and eyeing up the panfocal 18mm and the 20-40mm zoom once I can justify the price these lenses command).
I will be using this camera in week 110 of my 52 film cameras in 52 weeks project:

There were 2 versions of the 110 format SLR camera, their specifications are very similar, but the styling is quite different.

Picture found on an old camera bought in a charity shop.Probably the mother of the girl in the other picture.
Shot on Kodak film 200 speed I believe. A sharp camera for 110 film !! It really is true that all the plastic cheapo 110 format cams ruined the reputation of the format. The prints are sharp and beautiful. These are scans of prints.
