I just blame the wife for moving them, because they're not where they should be. After all these years she totally ignores me, can't understand it.

Mobile coverage was terrible, so logging in now somewhat late.
Last weekend we joined some friends an hour out of Townsville at Bivouac Junction.
Awesome spot.

Gave the camper a run as we are in-between caravans.
Been almost 2 years since its last outing to Blackdown & Carnarvon. We found out the morning of departure that it appears dumbhead here somehow has lost the keys for the water filler to the tank ;D 
So we weren't drinking any of that ye olde water. Washing only. I have also misplaced our camping lights and had to buy more.
I'm not a full-time idiot, but definitely part-time :angel:

Tucker updates:

the vet was very was happy with his bloods (mostly) He's still a little anemic so we're keeping an eye on that.

while he isn't required back again at the vets until his course of antibiotics runs out (about 20 days)

they do want a urine sample in two weeks time. (we're back in Katherine on the 20th for Tilly's *final* vaccination so that times well)

In town news... went for drive yesterday with the Ryobi One+ 12" chainsaw and got some firewood. Impressed with the little beast (for what we want to do with it).

An elder passed away yesterday so today is a "sorry day". (everything closes at lunch)

One of the AT's at the school, has a son in private school in Perth. He's 15 and has scored a try out with the Freemantle Dockers junior squad.

oh and I *finally* got round to fitting the 1Key locks to the Kedron van. One key for all the hatches and latches and the door. (only thing it doesn't fit is the fold down table). But switching from 8 keys back to 2... priceless...

In other news... the Starlink off the top of the Troopy appears to have lept to it's death somewhere on the 127klm track to the hwy... *goneski's*
