Thanks for your feedback.
I did not insist very much at both the Angolan and DRC Embassies in Lusaka but it is always interesting to find out what their official requirements are . Just testing the waters really : I am cycling down to Cape Town where I am hoping to get sometime in mid or late March ( currently getting rained on in Vic Falls ). I will try my luck there but for me, as a cyclist, the validity of the visas will be a problem even if I am successful ( it is at the very least 3 000 kms from Cape Town to the Namibia-Angola border, 2 months in the saddle ). My best bet is definitely to apply in Namibia. I know that it is easy enough to pick up both the DRC and RoC visas in Windhoek. Someone I am in touch with just got them very recently without too many hassles. He also managed to get his Angolan visa there in 3 days with a letter of invitation which I will need and will have to get. But maybe the Angolan consuls in either Rundu or Oshakati will waive that requirement too, who knows...
