Thanks Ric, yes, I am looking forward traveling the long flat roads again, one never knows what one may come across.

A bit like this morning when we were walking alone the banks of the river here in Katherine, Alice, one who hates the sight of any snake nearly stepped on a small snake.

Man, it is a wonder you didn't hear her in NSW, what a scream, anyway she has recovered, poor thing.
The snake took off one way and Alice the other
