We actually made it to Canberra to meet up with the daughter and her man .. only an hr late

Only to find that the chosen pub and fine food establishment, is closed on Monday's ..... so coffee and biscuits in the Winnie, till it was time for the bo to get back to his job in finance .... from home on his 'puter ..... being an ex loans manager for that bank, until his back gave out due to sports injuries, seems to land you plenty of work freelancing .....
We travelled on from there to Warri reserve near Braidwood .... and actually arrived be fore dark ..... well, total darkness anyway ..... Thankfully, the MG4 is powering the Air con heating as planned, it is bitterly cold outside, already 0* in the hollow beside the river, so it will definitely drop into the minus number over night.
It dropped to 0* at Jugiong over night and minus 2* in Echuca, daughter said it will drop to minus 4* in Canberra over night

Can't wait to reach the coast, where freezing cold is when it drops to single digits
