27th Aug - Monday first day of the working week...




The screw-up stands for the bus are waiting at the post office, beauty! They look just the job, and have found an engineering shop to add the 'tongues' to the mounting spigots. $60 later we have another 4 stabilisers for the bus.

  
Also stock up with my drugs for the coming months, via our new friends the local pharmacists. 

The last bit of our bread has gone mouldy so it's for the critters. The birds, all sorts have a field day out the back - including dozens of Black Kites -big birds, some with greater than metre wingspans!

We have decided to stay 'til Saturday the 1st, so we will be travelling the Matilda Highway to Cloncurry over the weekend... and the mail only comes into Karumba on Mon, Wed and Friday - at about 3PM. There are still a few mail articles on the way...
