Just wondering if anyone has had any contact with Willem, where is he and how is the progress. Last I heard he had some overheating problems on the CSR.

G'day Stuart
Willem and Judith were camped up in the
Newman caravan
park on Wednesday afternoon, we spoke at lenght about their desert travels and of course about his choice of tyres. Willem gets somewhat passionate about his ideas on travel and equipment we agreed to disagree on a couple of points regarding the "Bush"
They were leaving
Newman sometime on Friday to tackle the "
bore line " track and they intended on spending a quiet few days at
Barn Hill.
For me, it is always nice to finally put a face to a name.
Regards: Joe

G'Day Fred.B.
I believe the Kempens were traveling and
camping solo, though it's a fairly sizeable caravan
park, but Willems
camp was
well on its own, maybe because of their dog ~ Jess . I'm not 100% sure.
Regards everyone: Joe

Hey Mr Pesty, how's things? How are John and Suz? and Joe, the dog's name is Jeddah (she especially loves our cat - that is, she'd specially love to eat it!)

G'day Graham H
The Kempens + Jedda the black dog were in the other caravan
park. (
Newman Caravan
Park)
I trust the dog won't be to offended by my not rememembering her name, but she was definately guarding the Nissan very closely.
