Monday 22nd May.
The capacitor worked a treat, all is now working well.
I have recently been asked and talked into giving people a hand with TV reception, and have now decided that I would prefer not to help anybody at all. I have found that I can give people all the information they want to get […]

Sunday 21st May, (Sunshine Coast).
We have had a fair bit of rain over the last week so not a great deal has been done. I have managed to rewire the power through the tunnel and to the battery charger to make it at least legal. I wired in a power point in the tunnel to […]

Tuesday 9th May, (Dalby).

Sunday 7th May 2006, Moree.
We had a short trip to the northern end of Mt. Kaputar National Park yesterday to a feature called Sawn Rocks. This is reputed to be the best specimen of an organ pipe formation in the southern hemisphere, and it could well be true.
This hasn’t happened for a while: A couple […]

Thursday 4th May, (Narrabri).
Narrabri: A town I think will stick in our memories. This is one of the few towns that one gets that warm welcome feeling as soon as one parks the caravan. After being here for a full day we don’t know if it is the fact that we are now experiencing cloudless […]

Now 300km further north at Parkes, and the weather is no warmer.
We are already talking about how long we intend being here. We only booked in for 2 days, but we have things to consider like shopping on Thursday, there seems to be better shopping here than may be at Gilgandra or […]
