Re: Where we're gonna be...
Thanks, John.
It will be good to have batteries charged for her (eventual) trip home!
Just itching to get over to Loxton.
The decider will be arrival of filters from the Good Ol' US of A. (At least they have the filters in stock.
)
USA-to-Rutherglen delivery of filters has previously been about 4 days ... compared with suspension parts.
Ordered yesterday. Hope to be home Sat/Sun. Filters waiting for us? Cross fingers & pray.

Re: Where we're gonna be...
Landed home today (well, technically last night, as it's now after midnight).
Drove Forbes to Canberra. Lunch with rellies finished earlier than anticipated, so rather than spend another night on the road, we drove straight to Rutherglen. Four hours neat. Some roadworks, lots of trucks...and a few slowpokes sitting alongside trucks in the right-hand lane.
They say 'patience is a virtue'. I wasn't very virtuous.
Being long-time motorhomers, we're not used to travelling light. Took an hour to unpack the car and start putting stuff back where it belongs.
To be continued. Tomorrow.
Off to beddy-byes now. ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzz

OK, good trip but are the birds still around Ray?
I bet they missed their meals?

Re: Where we're gonna be...
Yes, they're still here!
The housesitters have been feeding them daily.
When I took their breakfast out this morning, they swarmed around me, anxious for a familiar face & voice, I guess.
Australia Post emailed me yesterday while we were travelling, to advise that the filters 'would not be delivered today (Thursday) as scheduled, but would be delivered as soon as possible.'
I'm hoping that means today...
