Only 3 sleeps to go and we are heading off for 8 weeks.
The truck is packed except for the perishables and the fridge.
Heading across the Anne Beadell, Connie Sue to
Warburton then on to the Gunbarrel through
Carnegie to
Wiluna. Next stop is
Mount Augustus, Paraburdoo, Karajini, the
Pilbara, West Coast to
Perth then
home across the Nullabor with a few diversions.Looking forward to a great trip with great anticipation.
If you see a burgandy 100 series with a roof top tent sporting a couple of EO stickers, say g'day. We will be in the company of up to 5 other vehicles at various times.
Catch up with you all in October although I hope to be able to get on line from time to time.

Mines probably got three flat batteries from lack of use. It's sad when I'm really looking forward to hooking up the camper just so I can measure the dimensions for the Spirit of Tasmania booking!

Have a good trip - not on much, been busy, but always thinking of you all - really jealous of the ones actually going on a trip. Hope Elaine gets black pearls like Jen.
Look forward to reading the stories. GG.

Thanks GG, do you remember the old f@rt who called in and said he was my brother. That could have been me in disguise you know. But in reality, I am much better looking than him and years younger
