"Now I don't know how many people like to drive a Beetle at that kind of speed (on purpose) but I know I'd rather go down Brickmaker's Kloof on a bicycle with no brakes!

"We didn't think anything of it at the time, but we saw several of the bodies of the crew, space pirates all, with what looked like necklaces of garlic around their necks. There was salt strewn on the floor in places, and it made a crunchy sound as we walked over it. Some had died clinging to crude wooden and metal crosses.
