Hi John, Petra, and all those great people i met at Vic South.

Yes i did take heaps of pics, and will post ASAP, however i do have a more important matter to attend to.
As we speak, my wife Alice is in hospital having major surgery, so i'm pretty tied up at the moment, she will be ok, but will be in Hospital for at least five days.
Haven't even had time to look at any pics as yet, but will get to them when i have some more time.
And to Ken, sorry mate probably wont make the camp, but might be able to sneak a couple of hours in through the coming days.

Thanks for a great time guys, will post later

Cheers Leon

Wish Alice a speedy recovery Leon.

Great shots and welcome back.

Here's a shot of the clouds Mick took on Saturday night, or maybe we were seeing reflections in the bottom of our glasses by then.

Shame about the weather but it's still great to get together and meet everyone, though it looks like a good spot for a camp! I hope i can get there next year.

Nice one John, i love lightning strikes, and thanks to all for there best wishes for Alice.

The surgery went well and she should be as good as new in a couple of weeks, but she dosen't look to bright at 6 o'clock tonight, to much morphine i think.

Anyway thanks again for your kind thoughts, and i'm glad everyone made it home safely.

Cheers Leon

Just one more funny story, well it wasn't funny at the time but i can laugh about it now.

You all remember that "Have Chair Will Travel" that i brought alone, well i left it sitting in the middle of the lawn didnt I, yep 40 klm's out of Nhill, i said %$##@ the bloody chair, iv'e forgotten it.

Yep, 100 K round trip to go back and get it, and on the way back to Little Desert i took the wrong turn because i was so pee'd off, and that cost me 10 k's more, not happy, i can tell you.

Cheers Leon
