Picking up our Penguin tomorrow.Croc Bars,Gulflander detectors fitted.pontoons next week.Then we can join you happy Meanderers on the track.We have really appreciated the advice and ideas given to us.I guess sometimes I come over as flippant,just me I like to see the funny side of life.Cheers Ibbo
dont forget the mossie deflectors, good on you marty, photos please, I think we are all flippant, wasnt it the monty python lot who sang "always look on the bright side of life"
just one more bit of maybe useless advice, we grabbed a set of those little plastic whistles that you stick on the bumper bar of the vehicle, now scoff or not but since we fitted a pair of these, they just stick on, the roos sit up and actively run away from the vehicle, well not run but jump or should that be bound away or spring, oh to hell with it they get out of the bloody way, I think they are about $3.00 each, but I honestly believe they do work and a hell of a lot cheaper than the shoo roo

Dave,those little thingys you mentioned I had on my Truck.Worked like a charm.Now I have a bone to pick with you...The Crocks,the Gulflander,the floods,Simpson Desert etc.Why did you not tell me about.The Southern Ranger?Do i need a gatlin gun,Ranger repellant or what.Ha,I have Always look on the Bright side of life on my pc.Play it daily.cheers Ibbo.By the way it is Happy hour or two here at Karuha.
ahhh!!! we cant give up all our little secrets now can we!!!, lots of secret things I could tell you about in all sorts of places all around australia, but where is the fun in going, because you would then say "oh thats what so and so told me to watch out for" takes all the fun out of "discovering it yourself"
I dont get "happy hour" until I'm home probably about 10 o'clock tonight, gotta fill the bin's for tommorow's carting, by the time I grab a shower, get some grub, have a coffee, I'm gone for a couple of hours night night's, then she's on again at 5 a.m. tommorrow, grease up, fuel up, kick the tyres and fire up
maybe a little rain on the horizon, if it does we will be set back again and have to work longer hour's. cant wait to retire!!!!
never mind maybe another two weeks she'll be finished, I hope

Those cheap plastic whistles do work have note the roo's do as you also noted . The attached is a close up of the gulf mossie so deflector are a must .
how the hell did you get him to sit still that long, and I will add that is of course LIFE SIZE,
oh and marty it's friday, who's a happy camper now hey!!!! I reckon he'd be like the first chook out of the henhouse this morning, strutting and scratching and flapping his wings, and chasing all the new worms
in all honesty mate, good on you, hook her up, throw the dog in the back and get out before mum see's you gone, or I guess if you must, you could take her!!! she does hold the purse I suppose
