I started with nothing and still have most of it left.

Yes, Mike and Anne are going in the ute with caravan in tow.
Wally has entered but not sure his EK sedan is going.
Current plan is to leave Adelaide on Tuesday with first night in Balranald.

Then meet me in Hay on Wednesday morning.

Cheers
Roger

Gave her a good scrub last week along with the new ignition and trying to keep the oil in where it belongs, still cleans up nice but is definitely going to need some repairs done soon, the rust monster is having a nibble in one sill and the tailgate Image

Looks like Adelaide contingent may be skirting around dirty old Mexico via Renmark Wentworth Hay. Or could be via the Hill. Roger’s golf trip was canned and he is convoying with Lenny and partner in his sedan, Richard and Wally in the wagon and me bundling in in the ute. All red sixes. Leaving Tuesday 8th.

I was hoping to go via Pinnaroo Ouyen, calling in at Pooles Massey Ferguson Walpeup to show them the key ring that came with the ute.

Hope you guys still get away ok - It's not looking good for Victorians unfortunately with more talk of extensions to this lockdown - lets hope things reverse in the coming days and we can all get back to some kind of normality( I think Ive said that before at least 3 times)
You will find me lost somewhere!

Not looking good for the Mexicans, if there's another 7 day lockdown after this one then I guess its all over - only saving grace i guess if its lockdown for Melbourne only so the country Vics can still leave ?

We are heading up through SA going via Broken Hill.
Another 500ks/extra day to our trip, but we really want to do it and catch up
Just watching the Covid website, and hope like heck that there is no one running around SA with it....
cheers

At the moment the lockdown is state wide - no exemptions which is pretty stupid given all cases have been melb only apart from one in Bendigo i think but none since
