Willem
We have advanced our trip ETD to tomorrow morning as all the jobs have been done, bills paid and caretaker organised.
We will be away until sometime in the middle of the year or thereabouts.
Doing a figure 8 throughout the Western Deserts and South West WA with a loop back to
Alice Springs,
Birdsville(EO National Meet) and the Flinders.
Take care everyone.

Take care, Willem, and have a great trip. Weather is just starting to cool down to that special time of the year, when it all becomes glorious.
Had thoughts of catching up in
Birdsville, in July, but daughter is going to South Africa at that time. Maybe at a later date...
Regards,
Bob.

Willem,
There's a few things that annoy me about your post
Firstly the destinations! all wanna see
places!
Secondly your "ETD" Who ever brings a departure date forward??? Every "normal" traveller is absolutely run of their feet during the countdown to departing and for a trip of this size the departure date is often postponed at least a day or two or three.
And Thirdly, Your expected time/date of return "sometime around the middle of the year" that is just pouring salt onto an open wound.....................!
Happy Travells...........Browny

Cya Donut muncher, the bakery will miss you lol.
Better take real good care of Jude cos you will have no-one else to argue with now.
Have a safe trip, look forward to hearing all the tales.
I hope your taking the tojo just to be on the safe side.
You had better keep up with some updates just so we can keep drooling.
At least when you get home, it will be my time to take off.
Cya mate.

Bro and Jude, hope you have a great trip and catch up with you in
Birdsville with any luck. Don't know how long it will be before we get back to the Flinders, but it will be as soon as we can make it.
Best wishes to you, love to Jude.
Heather and John

Thank you to all for your good wishes. Much appreciated.
We are endeavouring to catch up with EO forumites in
Perth and will also pay a visit to EO HQ while there.
This will be my last post for a while.
Hope to get away within the next two hours..........if everything has been crossed off the list :-)
