Hi everyone. We've left home and are full time now. Been on the road a few days and got a couple pics. Taken about half hour apart. Got to say it's beautiful here so will stay put for a bit. Joe and Co.

Gday... There have been a couple of threads recently pondering the future with or without electrical vehicles. Perhaps, one could consider the advances in phone technology over the past 30 years ... wonder what the next 30 years in automotive/electrical vehicle technology might bring. Cheers...

Every year round the end of February-beginning of March for about 4 weeks we get those blasted biting march flies. This happens when the Tuart and Gum trees blossom without fail, every year.
