John G Very poetic description of your "campsite" Al. Good to hear you are really enjoying your trip. Just a reminder that you have the enermous responsiblity of a certain trophy awaiting your return. This is just a reminder of your REAL priorities. JG

Gavin Hi Dad, Trip looks like fun, I find it interesting ion one entry you mention mowing down a kangaroo, and then in the next have a picture of a live fluffy kangaroo. Is this some kind of sick joke?!? I'm sure it's all in good taste. Your profile pic looks great, obviously gotta alot of sun up there, but maybe a shave every now and then to keep up appearances eh? Have a great time in Cooktown. Gavin

johnG You seem to have travelled a long way in a short time al. hope your not speeding. Might get caught by a speed camera. Great use of old train carriages - by the look of your photo. youve missed some very cold golf mornings this week. Must be nice to wake up to a nice warm morning. JG
