What Should I do?

Well Let's see... Hmmn

Dunno?

Guess you should do what's popular.

Enjoy your trip.

Stay safe

Let us know when you're in Vic. :-)

.

Stay home of course. You must have a lot of uncompleted jobs around the house to keep you busy for a few years.
Enjoy the trip.

Well Mal,
Best thing to do is stay home.
I'll take the LC and Bushtracker for a run on your behalf. I may also need access to your super so I can maintain them and put fuel in the LC.

Just let me know where and when to collect the equipment,

Geoff.

Enjoy the travelling.

Mal...................................

I think you're rubbing it in, aren't you.
You know most of us will be at work in 3 sleeps!!
And you're going to go off on a fantastic trip somewhere for who knows how long, without a care in the world,.......................selfish.

Have you got room for me ???

Rob

Mal,
1. go to pub.
2. buy lots of
3. load 2 from 1 into lc+ bushtracker
4. send partner grocery shopping
5. load 4 into bushtracker [if room from 2]
6. check wallet is in pocket
7. drive bush/beach
8. camp
9/10 infinitum. Repeat 1 thru 8

Enjoy ,life really does begin when no longer a slave to the job.

Mal

Go, and keep going till the money runs out.
Maybe you can talk to "10para" he seems to have resolved the problem.
All the very best mate. Keep in touch.
I would be a happy man if I was doing the same thing.

Regards

When U do get out there dont make the mistake of not using your body & become
most unfit then unwell.
Its easy to sit in the drivers seat or the deckchair just navel gazing. Retirements not about doin nuthin & dying, its about doing stuff & living.

Hi Mal
It is a big world out there go and see what you have missed.

Thats my plan in a couple of years

Ray

Mal,
Stay at home, annoy the missus and give me some of your super.
Best of luck

When I've got one foot in the grave I'll be regretting the things that I've done not what I wish i should have done !!!!!

Get out of there and doit NOW.

Regards

Russell

Some people are full of it. Get out and get cracking - suppose we have to put up with you again in July?

Mal,
I know how you feel mate. I've only got 7,300 sleeps til I retire and I have the same questions.

Throw the Gold Watch in the bin and disappear.

You will find that retirement is the busiest time of your life.

Enjoy!!

Hi Mal,

I'd suggest you do the Madigan Line. Take a bit more of that fine red with you this time :-))))

Didn't you retire last year????

Cheers
Phil

Take the worry out of the rest of your life and hook up the Bushtracker to a PATROL and life couldn't be sweeter.. LOL.. hehehe
Mate I am only jealous... just take the time to smell the roses
Cheers Poppy

I agree with all of the above. I am only 56 and have seen a lot of our great country and want to see more. Go out and do it. You only live once and I can tell you from my few trips about Australia that you will meet some fantastic people and that helps make the travelling so good.
Also the people on this forum are great. A bit of a stir here and there and that's what life is all about. Enjoy the 3 sleeps and then LIVE for the best.
Go for it and have fun.
If you pass thru Bathurst call for a cold beer. Homebrew that is!!!!!!!

Lucky Devil - i'd almost kill for the chance to have enough $$$s to chuck in my jobs and hit the road full time. Enjoy the big trip.

All the best still got a few years yet just remember travel slow and see it all

I tend to give advice on maters I know nothing about so why should I stop now
here go's you have been working and away all day and now you are going to be underfoot and in mums way all the time, I would give it a month or to so as to adjust to the new situation, think of this as serious planning time because you dont have a time limit any more rent the house to the kids and drift for a while, the only stress you shound have is deciding what fish to catch for tea

ps remember to go online now and then to make us all envious

Mal,
I have 78 days to go but who is counting. If you have not determined what you are going to do my suggestion to you is stay at work, but I assume you are taking the mickey out of us. Have a great time enjoy life, keep fit, spend your super. The plans I have made will keep me busy for about 10 years.
Bo.

Mal, I don't see you on the Bushtracker owners group website. Do you check it out?
