Flexibility - so plans can change when you hear about a great place you didn't know existed........or something breaks.........or you just wake up in a mood to go somewhere else. That's a mindset.....

And - my camera. That's the thing I must have.

 Helena, you are talking my language biggrinbiggrin

I can't go without Mrs W, the tug, the van, the vast tv (4 Mrs W), my underwear, my waeco, my hi-lift jack, my shovel, (because I'm a wombat and love to dig holes).

Oh bugga, just re read your post and you asked for one thing and I have given you a list, oh well to late now it's already written.

My camera and plenty of money.
There is really so many things you can't go without. Full gas bottle - Chargers for mobile phone etc. All your medication. Thankfully in my case that is only panadol, aspirins etc, nothing drastic I can't buy along the way. Portaloo if you don't have inbuilt.

Wow thanks for the great tips and humour, I think I had better rethink the size of my eventual mobile abode.

As for what the Boss says, thats a given, what the Boss wants the Boss gets...

I do have another question, What is the third sex? the one that Wombats avatar refers to?  Is that another test that needs to be undertaken by new trainees to the site, or am I getting worried about nothing

I think it could be the gender-indecisive. Take your pick.
