G'day all 'D' day is nearly here. Ordered 20' Van 02/05/03. Trips from Sydney to Factory to date - 3. We pick up van on Friday 02/10/03. five months total (seems lots longer) Thanks to all, especially Bob & Judy and Jeff & Melba and Peter Spring for assistance in decision making process. It is good to have access to so much experience, and commentary via the
BOG site. Looking forward to a leisurely return trip to Sydney. Bob & Sue

Don't forget to put some photos on for poor Angie, freezing her butt off in London town and still having about 10 months to wait for hers. Bob & Sue, you said 5 months seemed a lot longer spare a thought for Angie. Hope you enjoy your new
Bushtracker and we will see you at next years rally if not before. Brian & Margaret.

Hello Bob and Sue, Congratulations on the pick-up on the 2nd. Hope you have a lovely trip home. They tell me that the grins can be seen a few kilometres coming down the road. Know what you mean by the wait always seems longer. And of course, all donations of photos very gratefully received. We live on others adventures but our own dreams at the moment and part of that is putting pictures of BTs on the desktop and changing them every few days. Thankyou Brian for reminding everyone that we are on our way to freezing our butts off over here. Yes, folks, autumn is well and truly here in good old Londinium. We are having lovely clear blue sky days but very cold nights. Nearly put the heater on last night but opted for socks and slippers instead. The leccy blanket is looking good for an early start. Looking forward next year to 2 summers in a row. Only 305 days to go. Yippee!!!!!!!!! Angie

Hello Bob & Sue Welcome to the ranks of BT people that actually have one at home (sorry Angie). Enjoy the day and the trip home. The experience is wonderful and after 20 months is still that way, although the breaks in between getting away are hard to take. Regards Jeff

Bob & Sue, we are all waiting for your report on the pick up of your new pride and joy. Now you will have to get used to people coming and asking you questions about the van and doing inspections. Brian & Margaret

You message bring back good memories. The hitching
up, out on the road and 1st night on the way back are so clear in
our minds.
Best of luck and hope to see you out there.

G'day Gary, Neither mail nor postings are moderated in this group ....well ... not until after it is posted and seen, anyway. Gremlins or Fairies are the likely cause of the delay. Regards Anthony Explore this Great Land ... Do it Easy ... Tow a
