I was in a vehicle with a different team each day & my job as marshall was to oversee safety aspects, rule adherence & time allowed...

Since we picked up our Oasis Van we have not stopped. Our highlights in Tassie for the 2 months would include the East and Northern coasts. We arrived back on the Gold Coast just long enough to have a small repair fixed and then off to the Hunter Valley where we enjoyed the best weather they had seen in May....

With the frogmount by night I wrote 'see the shutter in the left corner of it's eye' but realised it was not good to see. Hope this is better. Bird cannot blink like we do. Instead there is an elastic membrane that slides over the eye. Here it's the dark piece in the corner. Starting to shut or almost open.....

For those who are travelling the Barrier Highway from Broken Hill to Cobar/Nyngan or reverse the rest area at Meadow Glen (Camps 6, NSW 1057) is excellent in dry weather (fair bit of red bulldust). It is deep enough to get back off the road. There is a toilet and shelter over a table. During the cooler mo...
