Sounds like the blind tunnel at Germiston.
Is this gonna be a standup fight, sir, or another bughunt?

That's the one. I recognise the tunnel. Needless to say, the area was much different in the 60s. Thanks everyone.

I used to work in the Cape insulation factory at Germiston Works (first graduate job...) - went through the tunnel every day for a year on my daily commute - remember it well!

Just realised I go through this tunnel a few times a week on my way up to Stobhill. Not for much longer though
