Can you help Bacon get home to Aussie?

**young1** · 26th July 2014, 06:56

Tomorrow I will be picking Bacon up, he will return to NZ with me in a couple of weeks.

For those of you who are confused already here is a link to the little pigs trip report

Somehow we have to get him across the Tasman. I will be without a bike (for approx 2 months) until mine gets back in the country so he really needs to be picked up from Taranaki.

So everyone put your thinking caps on and help get Bacon home!

And in case you are confused about me, here is a link to Leanne and my Europe trip blog

Hope Bacon is better behaved than that lil shit Pooey.
I still need counselling because of that bird.

Whats the time frame for Bacon to be in NZ is going on a tour?

I'm flying to Brisbane a few days after Labour weekend if that's any help.

No time frame, he just wants to get home :-)

About time he got down here.

I've been on the waiting list since Christmas 2007.

The pig is not a fast mover

Will have one son in New Plymouth next week who will be meeting my other son who is flying to Brisbane then further north on August 27.

Any use?

Thanks Garry, I am not home from Europe until Sunday 9 August so it looks as though that is too late.

Probably not as he works up there and commutes every few weeks.

Let me know when you're back and I'll let you know when he next goes on or off shift.

Cheers

He moved pretty well until he got caught up in Europe. But surely he needs a tour of NZ so he knows about quality living before returning to that hell-hole across the Tasman.
