coey,

We might cross on the road somewhere. We'll be taking the Kidman Way up to maybe Charleville. Our first day will be short. We're spending the first night with Kay's mum and dad in Shepparton, before we get stuck into it.

What sort of rig should we look for........??

Things have been tricky here.  I have contracted whooping cough which means 2 weeks time off work and then the gearbox went this week.  Nearly $3000.  We will bet there but just by the skin of things  cheers jayne and pete

Glad your car and health issues came earlier rather than later, now you'll have to rest up and enjoy the trip!

GeoffA and Coey, have a safe journey, and we'll see you in Cairns  :cup:

Meanwhile, 6 more sleeps for me!
