We have been between Port Augusta and Roxby today, she's blowing her ring out here, flat out keeping on the road.

Have a great weekend everyone, will hopefully drop in at sometime and say G'Day!

We're sitting here in Broken Hill getting smashed with storms. Heaps of rain and wind. Awning has started to separate from the camper tent so repairs will be required when we get home. Mrs Snow's side of the bed got a bit damp. Funny thing is it hasn't phased her one bit. ??? She's loving every minute of it. :cup:

We were going to get to the National Meet site tomorrow but couldn't find a campsite out of the wind for tonight between Streaky Bay and Willmington.
We have just arrived at the National Meet site and, as it is blowing the dogs off their chains, we have checked into a cabin for the night. We are hoping the wind will die down tomorrow so we can set up the camper.

We are now sitting out of the wind enjoying a glass of red.
See you all on Friday.

Cheers

It's raining in Sydney now, and I expect a wet run all the way to Broken Hill tomorrow.

There was thunder and lightning most of last night but no real rain.
The temp dropped by about 10 degrees when the rain started this afternoon.
We should be OK for the weekend though.

Hopefully we get a decent drop.

See you all Friday.

Well, we are sitting here at Cable beach and it's 9:30 and 26c with not a drop of wind. It is 82% humid though and the water is running off the car.. ;D
