Watch this space, as there maybe a comment added soon
Hey Cuppa, I have been reading your blogs and love them, but also am getting so frustrated seeing you out there doing the stuff I yearn to do also. Congrats to you and the wife to getting so successfully to this point in your life to be able to roam about and really absorb and enjoy this great country and people. I will continue following your journey with interest if only to lower my spirits and feel more dejected than i normally do!!! Good luck and safe travels.
Echo Phil's comments above Cuppa. Super jealous mate and it's so great to see people living their long term dreams!
I have been reading your blog but it seems the subscribe via email function is not working. The only notification I get of your new posts are by your posts here on the forum.
Great read Cuppa, and you told us you were unsure you`d have time or enough to write about. Bloody hell mate I`ve worn my eyes out. Little hint. if you see a phone box out side a town, say close to town where you have had or can not get reception. Stand close to it or in it and see if you get reception. I`ve gotten reception a number of times this way.first time was by accident as the phone went off just as i walked past it, so then on have tried it and some times not always it works.
Happy and safe travels guys.
Winnie, maybe try again, we tested the 'subscribe' thing & it worked ok, & I now have 70+ subscribers & no others reporting any problem. If I could fix it for you I would, but don't tink I can do anything. Sorry. Anyone else had troublwe with it?
Planning to post more updates tomorrow (Sunday). I'll post here when done.
We are now just outside Quilpie, Qld, & heading to Windorah on Monday.
