That second pic is almost identical to mine except I managed to get people in mine....and lucky enough for them to stay still long enough I could blur the water:DQuote:

Are we missing a few people there?
I was going to tell Derek that I had a photo of Florence with two people (known only as me and my wife) sitting on the rock just beneath the surface right in the middle of the pool.
Only thing is that it was taken in 1983 :eek2:
No they are the blurs on the water surface.Quote:

Other than that I have filled the tank and 4 jerry cans and we hope to be back in tomorrow, late afternoon. Track conditions don't sound too bad but it will be dry, dusty and rough regardless.
On another note we got the car serviced by Darwin Mitsubishi yesterday. Despite my reservations I must say I was impressed by them. I'm not impressed by the oil change however as, like Tony Ireland in Townsville they use Valvoline and it already seems to be breaking down (400km later). However unlike Tony Ireland they had no issue explaining that LRA are OK with them using this oil and gave me the spec's. I think I'll be writing to LRA about though as I don't believe it is correct for the Puma, maybe OK in a Td5 though.
Also today I once again received the comment today: "That's in good nick for an old vehicle" :rolling:

I can tell you why they use it I bet its because thats what they use in the mitsi's and they service so few landys its not worth them getting the oil in.
I would write to landrover just to see what they say...we didn't really mind as if anything went wrong due to the oil...then we know who to point the finger at and because its a land rover approve service centre they should be using the correct stuff...if they say its fine then on there head be it:angel:
Hope you get home ok,then sounds like another oil changeQuote:
