I can confirn that I am home again and arrived here around lunch time today with no passenger. (Mr Des Lexik shall pay for his sins)

Logged up 2975km in a week and drove over trillions of corrugations, hundreds of dips and floodways, a hell of a lot of cattle grids and hit a few too many washouts and plowed through endless bulldust patches. Had the starter motor solonoid jam on, burnt part of the loom, the gearbox breather hose came loose and it was a two hour job to do a 5 second repair, the waterpump by-pass hose sprung a leak( the only one I did bot have a spare of) but with sikaflex and silicon it got me home, one puncture....gidgee stake, got 15/100 with a trong tail wind and 25/100 with ahead wind. dearest fuel was Innamincka at $1.19/l

Traveled the following places: Marree, Muloorina Station, Lake Eyre, Birdsville Track, Birdsville, Big Red, Betoota road, Haddon Corner, Innamincka, Bore Track, Cameron Corner, Sturt National Park, Fort Grey Camp ground, Middle Road Sturt NP, Tibooburra, Milparinka, White Cliffs, Mutawintji NP, Broken Hill..............

Walker Crossing is closed until further notice. Coongie Lakes track is open up to Kudriemitchi but no further until flood waters recede.

Happy to answer any questions you might have.

Cheers
