I was reading today some sandgroper advice for Footie and his mate with accessories see Post 34727 and it bought a tear to the eye.
Now many of you know our tragic news of last year and how we were cared for and helped out by Bob and Belinda at
Innamincka Trading Post.
Well if I ever hear of anyone going past there I ask them to remember us to Bob and Belinda and give Belinda a cuddle from us.
Today I got an email from a remote cuddler heading up that way soon, The body of the email said, and I quote:
"Who is it I have to pash at
Innamincka?"
Amidst the crappiest of things to happen, Bob and Belinda were a light in a dark night. EO people are the
beacon of our lives. To the Phantom Pasher, I salute you, my smile couldn't be wider or my pants drier.
Thankyou

Bonz mate,
Having already given Belinda a cuddle last July, I can't wait to go back up there and have another one. As you say they (Belinda and Bob) are the best type of outback characters, friendly and helpful but most of all they remember you Bonz with great affection and respect.
There was a little reservation at first, if you ever meet me you might understand that better. I am a little scruffy especially when
camping away from civilisation, but once I mentioned you and they realised who i was talking about, Belinda allbut leaped over the counter to give me/you a cuddle.
Does that make me the inaugural cuddler, if so that makes me so very proud.
