Hi Bundy Boy,

I have "Call of the Wild" on VHS somewhere, haven't watched it in yonks as the Video player packed it in some time ago, should get it transferred to DVD.

The other one you mention I think is called "This Way to Cape York" and I have seen DVD copies for sale on Ebay at various times, usually bundled with some of Thommo's movies.

Cheers Glen.

Your first one is bundled here: This Way from Cape York

I remember watching the second one somewhere some time as a young fellow but can't remember any details.

Geoff,

Hullo Bundy,

don't know if you've seen this one:

Northern Safari

I bought it a few months ago. It is excellent. Vintage 1955 thru the Great Central Road (Great Central Bushtrack then) and into Arnhem Land.

In the days when you could carry a revolver on your hip to sort the crocs out.

Just a word of caution, the soundtrack wouldn't work on my loungeroom DVD player but it did on my computer.

cheers

I'm glad I ain't too scared to be lazy
