Speed is overrated

A flat tyre
Home (Apr 22)
A couple more days and we were home.
Unstable cliffs. Keep clear.
Streaky Bay (Feb 21)
Elliston was lovely and restful – except when we wanted decent internet! – but it was time to move on, and Streaky Bay was our next destination. Here we cross onto the traditional lands of the Wirangu people.
It’s all about the weight
On the way to our first ever destination we stopped in at Lonsdale Sand & Metal which operates a public weighbridge.
Learning to tow
Almost two weeks ago now, Megan and I attended a towing course run by Tow Ed in the car park of Priceline Stadium.
First tow
Well it had to happen eventually. We’ve hooked up a caravan and had our first tow.
The tug’s first report card
So the tug (VW Touareg) went in yesterday for its first service. This will be the first report on its condition we have had since buying it.
D’oh!
D’oh! Well this is embarrassing. ?
The tug
Well, we did it, we have a tug. We bought the Touareg from the Our new car? post.
Our new car?
We have bought a new car! New to us that is.
