    The Invasion .........

    The invasion plan of Australia has now been enacted. The 110 is aboard ship and has left for the port of Sydney.

    I will storm the docks of Sydney on the 8th May and will capture NSW and Broken Hill during late May.

    Reinforcements in the form of Barbare (aka Bittersweet) will arrive in July and in a 6 weeks blitz we will conquer the East Coast and Queensland.

    In November, further reinforcements in the form of Jon (Venture Overland) will ensure the conquering of Darwin , Northern Terrorties and central Australia before Jon returns to the UK and I head back for the departure port of Sydney in mid December.


    Regards


    Brendan

    Wow.... BIG plans ... hope you get it all done - a lot of Aussies haven't done all that in a lifetime!

    I assume you are aware just how big this place is...?

    It looks like you plan to skirt around our region but if you come through the new england (inland NSW - 450-850km north of Sydney, 200+km from the coast - spectacular scenery) post info or pm me closer to the time.

    regards - Laurie

    ps... signage & local road maps are in kms (for some unfathomable reason) so you'll probably end up doing the mental arithmetic to convert to real distances all the time just like us aussies do.

    Brendan, it's bad enough you're going to brave our specially trained outback backbacker serial killers, but as others have suggested you may want to consider changing your schedule to do the NT and central Oz first up while it's relatively cool, and do the east coast later.

    Or is it a "mad dogs and Englishmen" kinda thing?


    Cheers.
