Apologise for being OT, but went on a stage coach at Longreach and the drivers dog gave a bark when a car came up behind him on the black top (on the way to the dirt stage coach route used in the old days). He said his dog could also tell what day it was and ...

Just remember, if you are going to drape netting across the front of the tug to keep the insects out, don't cover the number plate with it. This is considered to be obscuring the number plate. Spot on Peter D, the police were stopping and charging motorists (including caravanners) for this offence ...
