GDAY ALL,
Fran and I have had to delay our start by quite a long time due to a major family problem. it looks as though it may take a while to get things sorted out so at this stage we don't know just when we will be on the road, but the way things are up north it may not be a bad thing.
                              cheers, rob

That's disappointing. Maybe you could take little trips to get have time out from the family matters, and a teaser for what's to come. I hope you're not sacrificing your lifestyle and putting your travels on hold for the wrong reasons. Family is important, but sometimes we put ourselves on the back shelf thinking we have to do the right thing. What I thought was the right thing helping my daughter and her kids, kicked me in the guts. She lost her licence, I helped her out, but somehow I was not the mum and granny she imagined I should be. Don't let go of your plans. I hope it all works out soon.

don't worry i had to do the same now we just take weekends, long weekend and maybe 3 weeks at a time from time to time until we wade through our pile of crap, if you have to rethink your plans it's not the end of the world, the world will still be there when your more ready to do you thing..

Our plans had a shake-up recently, and at first we were disappointed but then you see what people are going through in Christchurch NZ, or Grantham Qld, and its not so bad after all. Hope you can get underway eventually Rob.
