Pinaroo to home = big day for you.... :cup: :cup:
I thought you might have dropped in behind us after the Sunraysia Hwy junction.
Did you see a few silos?
What about the clown in the Commodore ute that tried to give us a hip-and-shoulder?.... ::)
-
Geoff, did the silos from Patchewollock. Saw the clown...moved up behind him a bit for a better look! We had a good run through town thankfully.
