Murray,

I have a nearly 3 year old who thinks I like getting up before the crows LOL

I will probably be one of the last to bed and one of the first to rise at the Gathering LOL

So it will be a loooooooooooooooong week me thinks

Fingers crossed I can still make it to the Pyrenees trip, a job change may kill that idea though :(

Wish we were following you Julie; 10 days to the big move to Mornington for us, say hi to Pauline & Bill and those Geriatric Gypsies (the real ones that is!) Hope we can make The Pyrennees.

Blimey !! Where is all the time going?

I'm off to town to pickup the Autofridge for the camper.

Yesterday I tested out one of these things as a portable shower (just remove the extendable arm) and mounted it on the camper. SWMBO refuses to use it LOL

Should add - the only reason I'm using it is because it came with my tractor and has just been sitting in the shed waiting for some 'weed' to use it on - ME. LOL

It says you can use it on Olives, so as long as you call the wife Olive, shouldn't be a problem. hehe

Hi all
Anyone wanting a stop at Lightning Ridge on the way up could try Lorne Station 5kms from town. We are here until Sat then we have a short 2 hour drive to St George.

Cheers

Ok Steve will do. You missed a rare event two weeks ago. 125mls of rain. The whole property was 30cms underwater!! Just a big bog hole/swimming pools. All good now as the everything has dried out quickly. Chris has some pics of the event.

Have a great music muster....Oh one of the fund raising bashes will be at Lorne last week of October. Expecting about 200 people and cars etc.

Look forward to seeing you Matt & julie.
I have another week to work :o(

But then we can leave Brisy at 5am and be in St George for lunch.
Be there on Sunday.

Have done it before a few times.

Fuel is usuallt too expensive in St George, so most probably will fill up there.
Well, cheaper than further west. :o)
Support the locals.

The Caltex or the Mobil is usually the cheapest in St George.

These 7 sleeps are not going to go quick enough LOL

Sorry, meant to say "not too expensive" - some ones moved the keys on the keyboard again. We always refuel in St George when heading that way.

Yep, got the MM thanks. Trust the larger map might be useful, even if you only use it to stick up on a wall for people to scribble on. Not expecting any to come back.
Any others you think might be useful I can be bring with me.
Only have the NATmap series and the full Hema collection.
