Today, we met Chopit, his wife and their gorgeous little and extremely dangerous dog, Fang. The Murgon freedom camp was the venue, we chatted about all sorts of things while Fang molested us with her pink pig. Thanks guys, great meeting and putting another face to an avatar.

Had a lovely visit this evening from John, aka, Rocky Lizard. John has been my photo guardian angel and it was nice to put a face to the name. A really interesting, nice man. Thanks for the chat John. Catch you on the road somewhere, sometime, in the future.
