It's early days yet but we will more than likely make this an overnighter for us.

If anyone wants a coffee we'll have two camping stoves on hand plus a 50 litre ice cooler on hand just in case.

I nearly forgot this one; just three weeks away and a week after the border ride here http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=11988.msg1220143#msg1220143 .

A full week for us; Border ride on 4th to 6th, then down to Adelaide 9th and 10th to get the trailer wiring here http://ozstoc.com/index.php?topic=11506.msg1220692#msg1220692 done and then Burra Gorge RTE on the 13th.

Will make it a day trip but we'll still take the trailer so we can have the ice box and camping stoves for coffee etc.,

I am under doctors orders at present and unable to leave the house (Not even to work) until an infectious bug that has taken me over has been eradicated.   I am out of all rides until he decides to give me the all clear.

I am a no go sadly. After a great Border Village ride and short sojourn on Eyre Peninsula with Pete I have "jobs" around the house. Have a great ride.

This will be a car trip for us as Heather's daughter Tammie wants to come along and try for some yabbies in the creek.

I've checked to make sure our two burner gas stove/oven works and we still have gas which I hope lasts long enough for the day.
Just need to drag the ice box out and pick up some ice and even the barby plate got a once over; just have to remember where the camping table is.

Had it not been for the cold nights we've had lately we would have made a night of it.

Have had the Lurgi last few days,  definitely out now,  but Mundulla a go at this stage.

No "R" in the month = no yabbies 😠

Heather said that applies to crabs; not yabbies.

Forgot - our car is a grey Territory which should hopefully be visible from the main entrance road
