    Talking Hobart to Townsville

    Right O U Mob

    Mrs Possum n I are gunna load up Princess Fiona n head north to Townsville!

    Things are really starting to get real now. We have a serious offer on this http://www.realestate.com.au/cgi-bin...&tm=1179051051

    and so providing it doesn't fall through n all turn to crap we will be getting on the Spirit of Tasmania on Sunday the 20th of May and doing Port Melbourne to Goulburn the next morning on day one.

    The next 4 days will see us turn up in our new locale of Townsville hopefully incident free and happy little vegemites.

    I'll try to update u guys as it happens (read anywhere where I can hack an ADSL connection ) and I'm trusting that if we run into problems one of you kind people will fish my ass outta the fire if need B.

    Princess Fiona is going great ATM so I'm not expecting any issues except for a crack in the tray that has just appeared recently.

    I only have to fit a reversing light to it and do an oil change n I'm set.

    Cheers,

    Nice looking place, must be pretty small if you gotta keep the fridge in the dining room.

    Good luck with the move.

    Cheers
