    Hey Gillie, You're doing a great job mate. I remember when we were trailer trash in the first few years of marriage/ kids etc and living in a 16ft van with 1 colic stricken screaming baby/ newborn and a vomitting 4 year old. 3am, one up all up Then work start at 7am....

    The misses has blocked out the first 2 years so much so that I have to remind her of things sometimes, so the best thing for your better half is to spend time with her mates on a road trip of a lifetime! She no doubt could do with this in a big way after 4 kids.

    It's not about browny points, its all about the pleasure you get seeing your significant other enjoying themselves and experiencing LIFE. Even if you are knee deep in vomit and driving a porcelain bus at all hours...


    It's all good!

    Nah, Its all about the Brownie points!
    You are quite correct here JC, Personally I am getting a thrill seeing the pics and knowing they are having a great time. Our original plan was to both go over with the kids and bring it back. We thought it wouldn't be fair to the girls though, A 6,4 and 1.4 year old aren't going to enjoy a trip like this especially if they are crook. The cheapest option was to throw it on a truck for about $820. Driving was never going to be a serious option until some of her friends expressed an interest. It is not only me doing Daddy day care. All these women are in the same mothers group so there are another three Dads looking after the kids and stepping up!

    They are leaving things to be done next time and aren't seeing it all. When my wife went into Fraser Range they had 3 hr chopper flights with wine and nibbles for $40 per head. Unfortunately this wasn't till next week. Now I think about it perhaps they say that to everyone who inquires!

    hope I oneday find a nice bloke to call my own like you guys. You seem like such great fellas, looking after your ladies and enjoying seeing them super happy, and sending them on epic road trips and letting them have some time off from motherhood to let their hair down while you fellas take over the household big pat on the back gillie! I will never probably need time off from motherhood as I am unfortunately a bit broken, but the men ive have been with would never be so supportive like you blokes!

    Hey gillie, well they are enjoying themselves. They are actually camped 2 spots down from us in Streaky Bay. I thought i'd have a quick look on aulro, and this thread caught my eye as i hadn't opened it yet and for some reason thought it could just be possible that this was about them and hey presto, it is.
    We are in the Amarok with cub camper. Fender looks really good by the way..
    I'll say g'day in the morning. Thats if i don't get up and tell them to shut the hell up.
    Wifes name?

    Not sure if you could consider this "looking after your ladies"
    Send four women to the other side of the country to drive back in perhaps one of the most uncomfortable and unreliable vehicles ever made in some of the remoteness parts of Australia!
    They will certainly remember it and I guess that is what helps to make it a great adventure to be spoken about in years to come.

    There are a heap of photos apparently but I only see what is been sent and all pics taken on the phone. I am sure there will be a heap more when they get back.

    A picture on Canvas would be awesome! Certainly something different. My wife does picture framing and stretches canvases all the time.

    Have you decided where you're sending her yet Arthur?
