The Pesty household has had a busy year with plenty of work to keep the wolf from the door, so to speak, although we will be affected with rural drought conditions I fear, but will tackle this problem as it arises.
3 out of 4 of our ageing parents have had major surgery, so I have seen way to many hospitals, but they are all doing
well.
Our 2 lovely grandsons are growing up way to fast, 5 and 2, and our beautiful first grandaughter was born in August and is growing fast too. Our daughter is about to give us our 4th grandchild, supposedly in the second week of January, but things arent as they could be so maybe this week yet, so all travelling has been cancelled by Nan!
We have continued to be active members of the YP4WD club which fill our social time and allows us to meet more and more great 4WDing and
camping people and have tried to catch up with as many of our EO friends as we have been able too.
As a fire fighter volunteer, I hope that the cooler weather has eased the situation around the country, and that some weary fire fighters can have a xmas home with there family's.
We wish all our friends a Wonderful Xmas and an Adventurous and Prosperous New Year.
Drive Safe.
Merry Xmas All - The Pesty's

Best Wishes to you and Glenda, and same to that bloke in the post above. I wonder if he will ever get that Yota for xmas that he has been hanging out for. Nah on reflection, you have to be good to get anything from Santa.

Neither of the Pussbuckets are likely to make Mt Pleasant. With any upwards inclining slope, it would probably overheat. LOL

This seems to be a SA post so I have better jump in. Merry Christmas to all. I managed to stay away from the computer for that last two days but I am back at work now. *sigh*
We were supposed to be away today somewhere that the mobile phones don't work, sitting under canvas and veging out, but our plans went all awry.
Still we had agood Christmas and are looking forward to hitting the road sometime in January.
Cheers
to all
Pete
