Some generalised ponderings....
(Preview)
Gday... I listened to an interview this afternoon on ABC Local QLD radio with Jim (? - I missed his surname) QLD President (I think) of the CMCA who are having their Rally at Boonah at the moment.

Maldon, Victoria
(Preview)
Thinking of calling in to Maldon for a spot of family history and cemetery hunting. However, there seems not any/many places to stay. Badgers gives the only CP a thumbs down.
Any suggestions?

GN Meet Up
(Preview)
Thanks to Jim (Just Cruising) and Leonie for the hospitality the other night - had a great night with you two and Lorraine and Brandt (Kiwi-as) - we are now in Yass for the night in a CP. Expecting a cold one tonight - been snowing all around Goulbourn - very pretty, but very cold overnight I would think.

Who has too much money perhaps !

Gday... I have pinched this photo from the LandRover Owner's Forum - it was apparently seen in Perth WA. It would appear all they now need is a boat and a motorbike. Cheers - John

Yes, we're finally here. Pity it's the weekend. It was a bit hard to get spot not too close to others, and there are power boats zooming around. Nevertheless, we're here, and it was sunny and warmish until 2 minutes ago. The sun's gone behind a cloud. We'll still be here tomorrow as we need to do some wash...
