Hi everyone, this is the first chance ive had to get on the net since arriving on tuesday night. Man its hot up here when we left Bendigo it was raining and about 10deg, get up here and I havent seen a cloud and its in the low 30s.

So far done all the tourist stuff, plus I snuck off and checked out a couple of VW places, no treasures tho!

Oh i did find a 55/56 kombi panel in the bush on the first day we were here its pretty knackered tho.

See ya, Rhett.

Over in Gove now, flew out this morning.

Staying with Mum and Dad (Desert bug) for a week, so it'll be good to look around.

Post some pics while you're over there....
I left Gove 18 years ago, so I expect things have changed a bit since then.
