Old McDonald had nothing on THE Wombat down on the farm. Where are you gonna be?
Enjoy your stay, and I hope GN doesn't fall apart in your absence.
A few will be trying to hold it all together.

That's a good idea Helen.

There ya go wombat, all you need do is come out of your mobile hole, climb up a power pole and perch on top of it with a mobile pooter, should get a good signal from up there.smile

 I was just about  to give that a try Dougwe when GR saved me with the next post

Re: No, No, No, don't do that Wombat, fried Wombat would not be a good look. Burning fur stinks too! Enjoy your "rural retreat".

Cheers!

Chris

thanks guys, on the day of departure Mrs W has to switch off all computers because I can't bring myself to do it cryno

I maybe on line now and again, but not every day and all night biggrin

I will say hi if I do check in, but I still have a few more days, so will start winding down and it will not hurt so bad when departure day arrives. biggrin

Mrs W has the van already packed, only food stuff to go in, I asked her to pump up the tires, check the batteriess, fill the water tanks, etc she told me to p!ss off, she could see I was very busy on my pooter, but I suppose there are some things she cannot (or will not do) biggrin

I cannot see how you will cope without a computer for 4 whole weeks!!!  Maybe take a laptop as there could be a spot just down the road where you can get a signal.  Where my parents live there is no wireless or mobile phone coverage - but if you go out the front stand in front of the letter box and take one step backwards and slightly the right, there is a signal.  Otherwide 3km up the road.

Anyway have a great time and watch out for the attack chooks.

And I thought you were a nice person Chris.

If you put your gumbies on wombat it will be ok, you will be insulated from the sparks.
