I too have come over from the Dark Side. Could not stand the stress and angst so I am glad to have found this place, it sounds like its going to be a hoot!
Yesterday I lay on the couch and read 158 pages of Ash and Wendy/Weezanickinoff's blog
and found you through that.
Thanks for having me, you can call me Nelly.
** Dot. We have three cats and a geriatric little dog
We have no Jeep

Thanks for the welcomes
There are no photos because we have no bus yet.
We have just put our house on the market (mid north SA) picking up a new Grand Vitara today (will be our future toad) next week we leave for the Territory where we will work on a station (bore running and grader/dozer work) and will buy a bus when the house sells. Then we will hit the road fulltime, hopefully getting work along the way.
Thats it in a nutshell.

Welcome to the forum Nelly, not quite the level of attacks over here but keep an eye out for Ray (Greynomad) if you get a spelling or grammatical error
Where in SA are you situated? If you are ever in the Mannum area please drop in for a cuppa, a few of the members live within an hrs drive from here.... well maybe longer for the Jeep owners
so a get together of the forum locals can generally be organised. I was told indirectly we can't ever be a Mannum local cause or grand parents weren't born here, sounds like Tassie eh, but the locals and those that live here are a very friendly mob so that's a lot like Tassie as well.... come to think of it, the cold mornings are a bit like Tassie as well
