XJ cherokee's are pretty cheap

They're cheap for a reason Wilbur.

And don't be scared of a little bit of hard work.
You might surprise yourself:)

New staff member.

My co worker has decided to quit in May. Just my f...ing Luck.
Now I need to find a replacement and get her trained enough to be able to go.

You can't not come Megan. Just quite too.

Here's a couple of tasters from my journey last year

If you look in the third pic at the white rocks, they are the sharp tyre killers. The aboriginals used to use them to make spears.

You're a pr1ck Wilbur. I am doing my best at the moment to not think about this trip. It is too hard to keep my mind on other things otherwise.

Just found out I have got another job, starting Friday. So now we know how we are going to pay for the trip. Just got to let them know at some stage that I am taking a month off soon.

I have just finished my first practice run. 500gm rib. About inch and a half thick. I think if I start now I should nearly be able to do 3 of them by the time we get to the rib factory.

[quote="Lightning_Silver_RX"]I can't contain myself

Speaking of the rib factory, I might just have something that old bull won't like.
