Thanks, Malcolm! Keeping it in mind.

Another lekker episode. This one was without a name. Melanie is always a great guest.

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Thanks David. And thanks for sharing. Yes, both you and Melanie have given my channel a huge boost.

[@premierhoner614]

WOW, Melanie Walker was a drop dead gorgeous blond some 20 Years ago. So nice to see her again.. Thanks Al... 😅

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Melanie is indeed a very special and interesting person. I'm glad she graciously agreed to the interview.

[@colleenannandale3151]

Memories are made of this!❤❤

[@keithallen4389]

Lovely stuff Al and Melanie, having a good old “Chinwag” (my suggestion) next to the highway.

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Thanks very much for the compliment and for your suggestion.

[@lastmanstanding9389]

Gosh I loved this girl, she was Miss World, Miss Universe and Superwoman all rolled into one, so glad you interviewed her. How about Drive Through for the show?

[@JustOfftheHighway]

That's a good summary of her superpowers. Thanks for you suggestion for a new name.

[@peterkoning21]

Hitchhiker on the Highway if I get chosen I have great stories. Elmarie Allen is my sister

[@johnbaddoghellno7751]

Or Hitchhiker chats on the Highway

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Definitely one of the top suggestions so far. Thanks!

[@shellyj7536]

I was at school with Mel in Queenstown 😂

[@haksaw123]

Amazing women. A role model for my daughter's and still my secret crush 😍

[@JustOfftheHighway]

And she's also a very lovely person!

[@andre-louw]

I was at school with Mel 😂

[@girolamoflorio512]

I would call it "Short left."

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Thanks for the input. T-shirt winners have already been announced.

[@africanrhinotravel8489]

Lay bye - that is what they call those rest stops / picnic stops next to the road in Botswana and Zimbabwe.
Big up to Melanie Walker - my childhood heroine

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Ah yes, I'd forgotten about that. Thanks!

[@davidjeppe8499]

Stoep kuier? Heard that's a thing. Loved this one thanks.

[@ochrechap]

Treasure Hunt!
Anyone remember that show?

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Definitely. Melanie talks about it at length in this episode.

[@angeldawson]

KUIER (actually, I hope the spelling is right - I'm English! 🤣)

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Good one. I'll consider it.

[@angeldawson]

@@JustOfftheHighway Thanks! 😆 KOM ONS KUIER might be catchier... 🤔☺️

[@JustOfftheHighway]

@@angeldawson Yes indeed. On the shortlist.

[@abrahamhenn767]

Proposed name. "Back roads"

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Thank you.

[@CorneEngelbrecht78]

Lekker idea.

[@rolandoscar1696]

Kry en ry. (Hit and run.)

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Possible. 🙏

[@StevenMarx-py8jc]

Pitkos Sessies.

[@JustOfftheHighway]

I like the addition of "Sessies". Thanks

[@paulfisher1160]

Rest stop and just stretch. Something like that

[@JustOfftheHighway]

That's the sentiment. Just gotta shorten it, I think.

[@paulfisher1160]

@@JustOfftheHighway Been thinking this one over quite a bit. Lay-by or Stopover maybe

[@rolandoscar1696]

Offroad.

[@JustOfftheHighway]

👍 Short and sharp. Could work.

[@friendlypiranha774]

Call it "Ompad Detour"😂😂😂

[@FunDayKey]

Perfect

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Thanks!

[@itsallrobbish]

Struck me as a good woman, until she had a pop at the England for being a nanny state. I guess H and S is stoopid?

[@JustOfftheHighway]

Nope. Just humorless.

[@andreweasson5262]

call my dad ballie and my mom bat. she does not like it
