After a late start with running repairs and a few parts from bush auto 1... Thanks drew! We're on our way. Lots of unexciting driving. Pulled into gunnedah at about 9:30 and everywhere was closed or full, damn mining peeps!! Headed into a rest stop just south of boggabri, bit noisy but free, so; winner! Got a bit bogged in a dodgy bit (rained lots on the way up) but we got out and found a less yucky bit to camp in.
