When you're faced with an unpleasant task that you really don't want to do, sometimes you just have to dig deep down inside and somehow find the patience to wait for someone else to do it for you.

Went to leave and the ute wouldn’t start , flat battery - turned out the alternator bracket had broken and the belt was too loose so we limped at into Augusta and made repairs while the rest of the mob went for a look at the lighthouse

Next stop was Beedelup Falls , the ute is now a mobile smokescreen but the rest of the gang could still see enough to follow
