And now I'll turn off the lap top before any other withdrawals.

No fear from here.  I secured a monday/saturday swap at the last moment this morning so I can have a second night on the road on sunday.  See you tomorrow.

Not sure what time I shall arrive.  Upon waking up I'll have a shower, cup of coffee, look at facebook, load the kwaka and depart in the dark.  My planned breakfast stop is Keith and after that I want to check out Mundulla and Frances before traversing Edenhope to Harrow.  Sunday I booked accommodation at Mildura so intend to go there via White Cliffs.  Monday return home via Wentworth, and Renmark.  The kwaka has never been to Renmark (or Mildura for that matter).

On a side note I booked my ferry to Taswegia for next year's national rally.  The ship just got real !!!

Around 4 and a half hours riding time to Harrow, and about the same to Mildura on Sunday, which still leaves another 4 hours plus to return home again. About 1200 Km round trip for the weekend.

Good stuff.  I'll now have someone to hold the other end of the South Australian flag.  Spot will be running.

Caltex Keith is one of my favoured meal stops as well, good service, and great choice of meals.
Do they still have the caged birds inside near the toilets?

10.25 pm, and in the door at home again, had a few skippys and two koalas on the road heading towards Coleraine.

Thanks to everyone for the chats and well wishes. A great get-together.

Safe travel home to all for tomorrow.
