Maybe not enough Dong was put on postage - much unhappiness this end too Woof. It was such a good card!

Maybe it may still turn up in time for Christmas

Here's hoping

Not enough Dong Seb? I am sure that there are plenty of internet retailers that can help you there.

Of course I had mate, just never one to let a chance go by (wow, there's a song from waaaay back).

Decided not to go with the padded bum thing, a bit leather chaps and Harley for my taste but I'm sure one of the others will take up the cause on that one.

Must say, very excitedly checked in to see the final photos, are you still in data recovery mode?

Yes and no.

Data recovery finalised and computer reformatted and all programs reinstated. Now have 450 GB of raw data to trawl through including 15,000 photos. Probably salvaged about 75% of the trip photos, but they are all jumbled up, and triples of everything due to me saving in two files and then resizing Ho hum.

And we've got Christmas Day here on the 16th so Mrs SB and I can disappear north to the Flinders Ranges and Corner Country for 10 days in the LandPanzer whilst everyone else pigs out on Turkey and Christmas Pud!

Then there's the solar hot water system to put on the roof and plumb in, the shed to finish and the pergola to empty for 'Christmas' Day dinner.

Never a dull moment!

Photos and video from the last couple of days will be up soon I promise

Cheers, SB

One would need a lot of Dong to cross the Pacific Ocean

Sorry, couldn't help it

Default For Hawkwind

As promised (just a little slow in delivering), Mrs SB with the delightfully forgettable watch - now passed on to new owners in South Australia.



Mrs SB with the cheap'n'nasty timepiece outside the Rising Damp Hotel in Ha Noi.

So apart from poor Woof not getting his posted Postcard, that is all my promises/threats fulfilled

Cheers, SB

PS: I still have to put up the last few days pictures from the trip, I know.

You're a man of your word Seb and Mrs SB's dress matches the colour of the watch perfectly. No doubt she bought it especially for the picture
