What about the TV antenna Tanks? All good?
Is it nice and quiet with the A/C going?
I'm guessing you'll be heading off soon then?
Take the shortcut & call in to BernieQ's place....
"tanks" here---
All is good in the TANK.
The tv aerial goes up and down, the air con is just great. It has all of the bells and whistles, and has pretty lights and a remote control thing.
I will be heading off to Dysart on Tuesday [today] and it will take a few days drive to arrive at the winter bunker.
I have done the Aldi bit and almost need another trailer to move the latest purchases to get the "BUNKER" set for habitation. I even splashed out and got a new bbq for the patio, and a heap of porterhouse steaks for a trial run.
I bought a new spin mop to do the floors, so any of the female members who are in the area please call in and teach me how to work it. I also have a new rice cooker and a slow cooker so as I can produce some wonderful meals. I bought some plain flour and self raising flour so as Dot can give me lessons on scone making when she gets to Dysart.
Selwyn has bought a Magna Wagon in Maryborough, and is heading back to WA later today, so it is now a solo trip in the TANK for the last 700 km without the Sprinter, which will have to stay in Maryborough for a bit 'till I can arrange to have it moved to Dysart at a later date once we can work out who will drive it.
It is early morning so I will stop playing with the aircon and get some sleep.
Keith.

Hey Tanks what do you think to your new Winter house? Nice to hear you made it without any more incidents.

Apart from this new comp that is David

Yes we are about all packed and stacked ready for departure on Saturday. Just have to finish off a few jobs in & around the house and give the last minute instructions for the bird minders.

expecting the nights to be rather cold for a while but that is part of this traveling thing. Brian had his final check up at the vets and he is fit to go

We have our check ups tomorrow

Any suggestions for good spots, fuel & things to see whilst going up the middle?

They reckon this week end is going to be a howler weather wise.
Maybe look at the forecast and head out after it passes and follow it.
