Came across this on one of the satellite tv forums. There are a series of before and after photos of Sri Lanka and Banda Aceh.
Bloody frightening stuff

Leave nothing but footprints & take nothing but photos

Very sobering indeed!
There is absolutely nothing left in some of the areas.

It is also interesting just what can be seen from satellites these days. The detail is remarkable.

John Boy,

Do you ever have anything positive to say?

You are becoming very tiresome in a very short time.

I am stupid for even replying at this Johnno guy.

He must lead a very boring and dull life.

Thanks heavens that the huge majority of people on this forum have a great sense of humour and give good advice. I even thought Truckster was a fool but having read between the lines, he does give good advice and likes a sh-- stir as well. Thats what lifes all about. Hope to meet him one day when I get back to Victoria. Just hope he can handle my arriving in the Terracan:).

Cheers

A great forum and keep it up.

G'day Mark,

love your second pic. However I am a bit concerned about the distance from you to the esky (with lid off) though, hope you've got a primary in the tent next to you.

Only finished the trailer the night b4 departure for Tom Price via Mt Augustus so no hi-tech sustenance delivery system is yet developed for transferring the necessities of life from the engel in the trailer to the work room on the top floor. I am sizing up a Waeco 18 litre jobby as a potential workaround solution.

I have just had to make do with the older and noisier manual delivery device that is usually housed in either the food preparation area or front passenger seat, but the reliability is a bit suspect and the groaning noises can be a tad disconcerting.

I am contemplating trading the 40 year old device for two 20 year old models. ..... The search goes on.

aaah... your'e a funny bugger, bet you love that old manual device :)

watch out for the emus on the way to My Augustus, and make sure you take the time to climb it, add a rock to the cairn. There is some beautiful rock art there also.

Jeremy.
