I thought at first it was some strange atmospheric anomaly - or an optical delusion - but no !!!! It's fine out and forecast is for four days of it.
:-) :-) :-)
Unfortunately I don't think I can get away - but for those that can, the floods will have moved stuff around, and put a picker or 2 where you might be able to get it!

So have at it guys, just remember to put a photo or 2 on here for us less fortunate ones - with a working problem.

Get busy get lucky - NUGGY

Thanks KK, great photos mate (except for a total lack of yellow matter). Looks like your Rover is well kitted out to go most places, now I know what it looks like I'll keep an eye out. Give me a shout when you are next camping at Goldsborough and I'll come for a visit. Every time you go south you drive past my place at Camerons, unless you go through Moana. Look out for the large orange thing on the lawn.
Good Luck NUGGY
