Yep..........the caricature was done by Cartoonist Mick Joffe, of Sydney, on one of his Australia walkabouts and was part of a series called Endangered Territorians :-) .....we were still living in the NT then....done about 7 years ago. I have less hair now..hahahaha

It is a caricature and I would like to think that I am nowhere as fat as the pic shows :-))) but then again....pretty ugly ..eh?

Cheers,

Great Drawing Willie, I don't remember seeing too much of the smile or the tubbyness the other day but after a few more donuts they might be back ROFLMAODare to Lead not to Follow

Des...after driving 500k non stop into the sun at a boring 110kmh you wouldn't be smiling either.........next time I'm there I'll be a barrell of laughs.....:-)

Andrew...Your Jen wouldn't be that desperate..what? Pull your socks up man !!!!! Surely you cannot be uglier....lol....I am going for the oldest car and ugliest mug on the forum.

Willie, you've got my vote. I recon if I stand alondside of you, I'll be downright hansom.ROFLMAODare to Lead not to Follow

Listen carefully Mr Lexik. I have been known to perform practical jokes on unsuspecting 4wd'ers. So.......seeing as you and I are going on a journey to Mexico in the not too distant future you should be made aware that your unkind remarks about the Beauty and the Beast will be added to the already long list of misdemeanours perpertrated by you via this site. Retribution will soon be at hand. AND my sarcastic comments from time to time can not be discounted in the list of things....:-)))

Cheers for now,
Willem

Evening Willie, Can I share with you another of my little phyosophies of life. Give and ye shall recieve.hahahahahahaDare to Lead not to Follow

The word is supposed to be "filosofy's"Dare to Lead not to Follow

Ugliest car, ugliest mug, Upset the most people - now that would be a trifecta. Most people are beautiful in someones eyes. I am always surprised that mothers come along with their baby that is pock faced and say how beautiful they are..... Actually it happens to Dad's too - I can look back on my Son's photos when he had bad eczema and think, Gosh he looks shocking. Didn't notice it at the time.

Hey Andrew - I have virtually the same photo of my vehicle crossing the Pascoe River on the Frenchmans track (Cape York) but coming in from the north - you can see it on the ExplorOz vehicle desciption section of the site as my second photo (click on photo of my vehicle on forum).
that crossing was probably the more difficult of the crossing perhaps - well it was rocky and made for some light entertainment when walking it.Cheers, Beddo

Was at the Pascoe River in Cape York. Was pretty low as I gather that it is often over your bonnet.My Toy - 2001 Landcruiser 100S Turbo Diesel

The corner of nsw is a great way to spend a couple of weeks.
I should also be out there in the september school holidays.
The top end of the Sturt nat park around olive downs area is very pleasent on the eye.

All the best

For reference to Gumvale Gorge - talk to NPWS at Tibooburra about going to see the Gumvale Gold Battery - they have mud maps,. Good 4WD trip up one of the creek beds - then follow on to Mt Poole, Depot Glen then have a beer at Milparinka.Cheers, Beddo

Thanks for the tip Jeff. When did you do the Cape and Pascoe River crossing?My Toy - 2001 Landcruiser 100S Turbo Diesel

For some down south scenery Balladonia- Mt Ragged- Israilite Bay- Pt Malcolm - Bellangers Beach (if you dont respect your vehicle) Poison creek (dont forget the rods) Thomas River- Duke of Orleans- Dunns Rocks - Capelegrande - Esperance. Then back to Kalgoorlie with an overnight stay at Peak Charles (well worth the steep climb) By the way is there such a thing as a bad trip?

Awesome!! Only asked for three but you go the extra mile and give us four. I am guessing that you don't like shopping on Christmas Eve.

I did actually have a look at the Trek Notes to see if there was something about Lincoln National Park and Coffin Bay and parts around there. I would think that a Members section on each trek where you can rate the area - say out of 10, make comments and probably even add things like variations to the Trek Notes Itinerary. Eg. Dave from Adelaide posted about "Sir Issacs track in Coffin Bay National Park" which was his favorite and if there was a trek to Eyre Peninsula comments and a rating could be added to the area. I think that a rating for enjoyment of an area would be better than a vote for favourite spot. People reading the Trek notes would know that there was more and would be more tempted to become Members.

What about Uppakumbukta west - isn't that where you are from?

Have had one day at Woods Point and it was fabulous. Don't know what it is about life - things always seem to encroach on you Recreation time. And I need all the Re Creating that I can afford. Fifteen days into the year and I am feeling stuffed!!
