Congrats to T1 and Margaret!

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

Well, we is back in Upper Mannum but it will be a week before I recover from that drive. Storms, head winds, side winds, perfect weather to drag a 20ft container perched high on a beavertail truck. Back to 5th gear often to maintain 60km/h and 36ltr/100km, dragging that container in the wind between Wagga and Balranald was like trying to keep a snake is straight line..... and it looks like we have to do it all again a 4 weeks time, I can hardly wait, left home 4:30pm Sunday and got here 11:30pm Monday but we did have a sleep between Wagga and Narrandera. Naturally did the run out of fuel, 10 mtrs from the servo outside Wagga, full bleed the system this time, just the thing in the rain on the side of the highway complete with cab tilt and forgetting about the coffee still in the cup holder :D

:lol: You must have heard me yell at the thing last night just after we got here.... I think the new neighbours might have got the idea we don't like barking dogs cause they came out and shut it up. Lucky I got the step ladder to look over the fence before I threw the bucket of water as she was just walking back to the house, would have got a direct hit I reckon :lol:

Well, more news from the T1 & Margaret camp, we bought a house, well going through the process anyway. This is the place we bought http://www.realestate.com.au/property-h ... -121921970 We negotiated to buy the place with everything in it, they just take their clothes and family photos so we don't have to do another house move.... we is well and truly over that I can tell you :lol:
So, what do you think?
