Kimberley/Kimberlies/ Kimberlys

Yep, should be "The Kimberley"

Really!!!!!!!!!!!!

Must be the last one in existence?????????.

I brought one new years ago and the bloke from the RAC reckoned that they made them so comfortable in the build so as to provide a nice waiting environment for the tow truck....................

My dad owned a Kimberley and he reckoned it was good and comfortable. I thought it drove like a slug.

Natmaps have it as Kimberley no "The". Other references have a "the " Kimberely no capital letter so I would gather not part of the name.
Kimberely as a girls name is old English for 'from the meadows"

I'll make sure I have a more productive day tomorrow.

G'day Willem,

Have a good trip, back into the desert/s. Weather should be good, albeit cold.

Worked in the the Kimberley/s, in late 60's, early 70's, for about 6 years, and we always called them the Kimberleys. But we were only in our 20's then, and not politically correct, and probably foul-mouthed as well!

Yeah, remember that bloke on EO, think he was a doctor, but he did have some bloody good photos on his page.

Let us know how the trip goes, as you progress, Willem, if time permits. Linda and I are off to Kakadu, mid July to see the daughters, for a fortnight. Be good to see that country, at a different time of the year.

Regards,
Bob.

Maps say "Kimberely"
