gonna head down the West Coat after all. Probably go through the Mackley today, camp at Westport,, then just sort of wing it from there.
weather looks good for the W Coast, so really lookin forward to exploring on the way down,, its a stunning place when skies are clear!
Will be good to put a few faces to user-names at Bannockburn too.
I'll be the grey-haired git with knackered gear on an old Honda!
Muzz.
Ps, will look out for a bus towing a Dommie in a smoke-screen.

You got that slightly wrong Muzz the Dommie will be riding the bus.
I'd put a picture up if I could find a way to do that.
So you will just have to use your imagination.

Hi Shrek, how ya doin'?
Yep, them Safari's are common around here.
The rain, not so much. Had some overnight; stopped this morning and now it's sunny and 30 degrees again.
Went up to Algidus, around to the Harper end of Coleridge, and through to Lyndon today. Drizabone isn't just a coat.

Went over the old man range this afternoon. It was raining for the last half of the nevis and through to Lumsden. By the time we got to piano flats the rain had stopped. Did hear some thunder and see some rain in the distance going over the range but it never made it to where we were. Pretty dry up there but I did manage to find 1 mud bog to get filthy in.
