Sir Kev & Darkie

Only 24 Days until the National Gathering in Silverton starts :)

I'm EXCITED hehehehehe

I only have 9 more work days to go and we are heading off to Silverton. Looking forward to the slow trip down there via Camerons Corner and the return via the Darling/Culgoa/Balonne/Condamine rivers home :)

Cheers Kev

Cheers Kev

Geez Kev

Who's going to stamp your Cane Toad Passport when you enter Cockroach Country?.

Maybe Hairs and Goldie can vouch for you if you bribe them enough.

I reckon you will need at least a minimum of two cartons of Bundy lol lol.

Yeah, it is getting closer mate.
21 days, 7 hours, 25 odd minutes and a few seconds, but who's counting?
BTW the Yowie has his key to his wardrobe. :)
You'd be happy about that, Hey Dave? EHEHE
Fysh has taken a month off work, the place is taken care of with good friends and great neighbours. Our first road trip, don't know who's more excited, the kids or us.
Have a safe trip and we'll see ya there.
