Have you had all your vaccinations, flu shots, Equine Flu clearances,
Roachie - Pesty-Muddy and Brew avoidance briefings.

Are you carrying UHF handsets just in case you get quarrantined and wish to to talk to us 'over easters'.

If you make it to the Ceduna Fruit & Veg Nazi interrogation centre atCeduna don't be surprised if they spray you with left over agent agent orange (Kills anything human) and then fumigate your rig with Dioxin - apparently they don't take prisoners there and have a ardent dislike for all things Toyota.

You could take a quick leftie before aforementioned 'flytrap'
and head directly north up Googs track, lovely scenic day trip, to Tarcoola, turn right and head for Woomera and Adelaide.

Should you be carrying anything toxic, foul and filthy just call into the National Bank at Kadina and leave it for Roachie, and tell them it's a present from a bloke in the Riverina called Des.

Pass on a few Toad croaks while you are at it and tell them to tell Roachie that Trevoooor Ribbit sends his regards.

Now! if by this time you become aware that you are S.Aust's MOST WANTED, fear not, just head directly East to Clare and on doing so you will pass member Pesty's hidey hole. When you get to Clare just make out that you one of Pesty's uncles (No one will take any notice as anything is possible with Pesty) and rack up all you need on Pesty's good name which will then be known as MUD.

Speaking of Mud, dodge the member Doe's of Adelaide like the plague. Ms Doe is 'out there' with the best of them, sharp as a tack and will ransom you to the highest bidder.

By now you should be fueled, victualled and ready to bolt from South Aust.

Plan as straight a line as you can to Tailem Bend, turn right and head for Robe. You need to get across the SA/Vic border by nightfall as thats when they let the Missan-Nissan drivers out. Nothing but chaos, exploding engines, burst oil thing-a-me's, melted tailights, flat tyres etc etc - just a mess that you don't need.

Once you get into Vic safley, fire off a quick post to the forum and I'll let you know the Gps Co-ordinates for a 'safe farm' at Timboon that you can lay doggo at for awhile to recover from your ordeal.

Have a nice week-end now and make sure you pack an extra ration pack or 50. (LOL)

That was remis of me wasn't it(LOL)

However Willem is always away on some bush epic and I am not aquainted with Michael so haven't got a 'licence' to bag him.

But as usual, took about 5 secs to get that Kadina King Cock-Roach to take the bait.

Looks like poor old member Fairlane has been struck dumb. (ROFLMAO)

Willem

Will member msg you about something totally OT re Petersborough.

G'day Fairlane,
Mate, please disregard everything that Lucky has said in that long-winded reply of his. He is nothing but a blow-hard (and a Nissan wanna-bee).......
You'd be more than welcome here in SA......it's a sign of a discerning traveller to come to this great state. Interestingly enough, Member Lucky came here once to see what all the fuss was about; and now we can't get rid of him!!!! He's over here every other weekend and he even joined a local 4WD club...(Gawd alone knows why the President of such club would have been soooo silly as to accept his money).
Anyway, I hope that once you get here it happens to be on one of the rare days of the year that he is not here.
Now, as for the 2nd part of your planned trip, can I respectfully suggest you start heading in a east-nor-easterly direction from Renmark. Unfortunately, that will still mean that you WILL have to pass through that back-water called "Victoria"; but your exposure period should be short enough that you won't catch too many lurgies! However, if you are like most of us crow-eaters, you will take an alternative route altogether, via Peterburough etc and on to Broken Hill and into NSW. Do yourself a BIG favour and give Vic-bloody-toria a REALLY wide berth!!! ;-)
Cheers mate.
