Good morning all,

Well it’s all happening. There’s more caravans poking through Wilcannia than you can poke a stick at, and they tell me there were big mobs of ‘em at White Cliffs yesterday. Camel races, bike races, what a weekend.

Anyway, as you know all roads lead to Silverton for the 2nd. Mundi Mundi Bash in almost as many months.

Just seeing them going through town, goodness knows where they will all fit.

Met some of them in Cobar yesterday and they are just as enthusiastic as ever.

Good morning all,

Back into harness again. You know how we have to be very careful of hitting a ‘roo out here at night? Well it has nothing on dodging ‘pot holes’ down in the ‘inside country’. One was that big a larrican planted a pot plant in it!!

Anyway, if you’re within a bulls roar of Louth, get yourself up there for the Louth Races next Saturday, as I said before you’ll love it.

Then toodle out to White Cliffs the following Saturday for their “Camel Cup and Bikekhana”

Sounds like a fun day. As you come through Cobar, you can see a real Stock Auction on the 9th. with the Cobar Ram Sales. Just a thought.

When you’re done at White Cliffs, head to Broken Hill, They have the Winter Wonderland Markets on the 21st. The Mundi Mundi Bash, big event, on18/20th again August.

You can’t make them all but have fun trying. Also the Wentworth Show, I think I mentioned on the 28/29.

You’ll have to book soon for this one, but the International Ploughing Competition is on in County Laios, Ireland, on the 21/23rd. Sept. Hell it’s a good show!

Forgot to mention, all you people in Vans, if you are close to Merbein on the 13th. (Sat. week) there’s a “Vanilla Slice making Comp” You can do that in a caravan, have a bit of Fun.
