pm - post meridian - after noon, I imagine. Not sure how that might help me... I'd be looking for a booth on the way out to the Maccas in the morning. Can you vote on Wednesday anyway?
I just checked here
http://www.seo.nsw.gov.au/our_electoral_process/local_government_electoral_system_2/index.html, and realised I might be enrolled in Tamworth (where my parents live), which means I might not have to vote at all. Not sure about that though...

Bit of alternator trouble tonight (see Gen Tech) but I definately don't wanna let that stop me this weekend. I am in Newie, so yeah, see you all at Edgy sometime before 0700. UHF 15 is fine by me.

There has been bulk rain around newy in the past few days, there will be plenty of slipping and a sliding up in those there hills!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
work has just informed me the require me on saturday to interview new applicants so it looks like a negative on the trip, so i guess thats 1 less 4wd, maybe the trip should be postponed due to chronic shortage of recovering vehicles, i mean toyota?
sorry guys ill come next time i promise, ill even wear the skirt of shame. Will not miss the overlander forum trip up stockton beach the sunday after, so if neone was dreaming about meeting me then theres your chance.
sorry again, im so disappointed. take lots of photos!

Well, the wife decided this morning that she is not coming on saturday so that she doesn't stress out.
Hopefully I will have a co-driver by the end of today.
If not and you guys have someone who would like to come along to fill the seat let me know.

no offence dude but rope is pretty dam hard if not near imposs. if your in an unlocked rig, from memory slippery is ok. but both these tracks are way past ourimbah area of the watagans..
