Blog Stats so far

Morning Bloggers,

Well its 8 month today since we left Heathrow on that Silver Sausage, outward bound.

I probably enjoy putting these blog stats in to remind us, when we look back at this adventure, just what has been done.

We have done about 32,000 K's in the Patrol and it has definatly been the tool for the job, it has taken us to places that would have been unaccesible if we hadn't of had it.

The Trailer tent has been great, even if you don't want one, you ought to go and buy one just for the crack, some times in distant memories I can remember it being cold, but that is a distant memory fortunately.

These are saved on My Travel Blog website, and are hopefully secure, though we have burnt over 11.500 to CD and will soon be winging there way back to the UK all nice and safe.

Total Blog Hits 19831

I can remember our last day on Tasmania with Lee and Marilyn Harris when we had just hit 10,000 hits and we were euphpric, we really do appreciate this drivel being read, and send our love to all of you.

Trailer tents in the outback may be fine but back in blighty there will be a *lot* of cold nights and they are more expensive in comparison to caravans which are better at isulation from the heat/cold... and they are quicker to set up :-) It's good you got a great 4x4 for the trip I think the patrol was highly rated on Top queer in the Uk with 32000 klicks thats an average of 600 miles a week, great going. We have just converted our car to LPG to keep the costs down here in the UK as it is over £1.00 a litre now compared with 46p for LPG. Having lovely britiash weathe rhere now... the heatwave has subsided and given into intermittant sporadic downpours... jacki said we have this until the end of August :-( Visit my website for quality leading brand sports sunglasses at affordable prices ... great for the Australian weather! http://www.kontrolsports.co.uk

Your Blog
How can anyone not love your blog's? They are such a mirror of yourselves and a wonderful commentary on the places you have visited in Australia. Are you cutting CD's or DVD's? You get a whole lot more onto a DVD. Take care and ENJOY. Whether its travel or work!!!

DVD's
Hi Gary, thanks for your great comment. I am cutting DVD's, I manage to get a whole month of my pictures onto one DVD, I cut the DVD's yesterday for Andys pictures, managed to get 3 months onto one DVD, Andy is taking plenty of pictures, but his are slightly smaller in size than mine (7.2 compared to 10.3 million pixels). This country just lends itself to any photographer, but the light in many places has to be just right, sometimes the harsh midday sun just does not give the right effect. I am lost without my main camera lens and look forward to its return. Caroline
