It stopped raining here about an hour or so ago, now just an occasional light sprinkle.
Having a coffee, and should be on the road in about a half hour.

 

Kev arrived Paringa safe and sound at 3pm but can't post message, very cold he says ......Brrrrrrrrrrrr.

Am home safe.. in the door 20 mins ago. Left Paringa 3pm, made pretty good time during daylight, was through Bordertown by 5.15pm. Google says 286 km...  3 hours and 9 minutes???
(OOPS!)

We left the Caltex at Renmark at 3 pm and with one 10 minute stop at Morgan we arrived home at 6:05pm GPS says 283Km and 3 hours 11 mins so can't complain about that one.

Alan, I was having a play on the open road (no other traffic) heading for Bordertown, had between 5 and 6.5 dialled on the right hand gauge 

After Bordertown, I reverted to around 3.2 for the rest of the trip

We had a cold day for our RTE at Paringa on the Murray river near the SA/Vic border, with temps barely crawling above 10 degrees.   Despite the cold we had eleven OzSTOC members attend.   It was good to see four Vics make the journey, and a big welcome to SA's Langers and JohnG on their first OzSTOC gathering.

We I neglected to get a flag photo

Sorry Pete, not Johns first RTE, regardless; thanks everyone for making the effort.

Many thanks to all.  Sorry, been tied up in Bendigo doing some painting. Its been well docoed about it being cold and that's 100% spot on.. Traveling from Bendigo was a bit brisk at times but nailed it's  arrival time within 10 minutes without issue. Great to catch up with all, some new faces and some of the regulars. Special mention to my bunky JG for the many topics discussed over a few frothies, and may be a red. Always have a great time and try to catch up with all. Nice to finally meet up with Allan and Heather. Nice place to visit and well organized.  Thanks all. Nigel
