      Hello everyone, I'm snail 59 years old in December, wife Jane, 2 teenage Daughters. Spent my younger years in Wepia completing an Apprenticeship as a Heavy Vehicle Motor Mechanic, my career has been in the trucking industry. Over the years (before children) Jane and I have crossed every Desert in Australia. One highlight was a trip to Madigan tree in the Simpson Desert. We were the 5th entry in the visitors book left behind by the Range Rover Club of Vic in 1984,our trip was in 1992 (I think) there were no tracks in those days. Now with High school and Uni we are having trouble getting away as their holidays do not match so I do a few short trips on my own. My rig is an old steel thing and the motor is crap if I have a head wind or there is the smallest of hill I have to push the bloody thing my belonging are towed behind in a trailer.So there is a little bit about me, I hope to meet some of you one day. Cheers snail.
