I have just had the finishing touches completed on the Ranger, new fridge plug and spare etc; the boys had to shift the Red Arc battery controller as I wanted to put in a cav type pre filter on the tug as it is a big job to change the standard fuel filter. The whole unit has to be taken out of the veh to access the filter, not a job to be done on the side of the road. I will put in the filter water trap (Cav type) before the main filter so I can drain the water and change pre filter every 5,000 klm or so. A much easier option!!
I must again sing the praises of the team at TJM Scott St Cairns, Jason and crew did a most professional job on the Ranger, you know, every thing was finished, no bits half done, insulation on all wires, kill rust and grommets on all holes etc, just a trade quality job. If any one up here needs any thing for their tug I would highly recommend them, Thanks again Guys.
The Mojo 150 scooter I bought is going great guns, very cheap to run and a whole lot of fun to ride, until it rains and you have a leak in your wet weather gear, right where you don’t want it. I got to work and had wet b***ls all day, bloody shit!**!!
It looks as thought we will be off in October now as we have a conference in Hervey bay then and a wedding in December in Mullumbimby!!! (hope I spelled that right). So we will have a month or so to do that short trip from Hervey to Byron Bay.
I am looking at a nudge bar for the Ranger so I can mount the UHF aerial on it, also for a little protection. Gee they are not cheap.$800 from Ford I might try ebay.
OK folks that’s all for now and a reminder please sign our guest book so we know someone is reading this

Christmas has been and gone.
Well x-mas has been and gone, as expected we had an absolutely brilliant x-mas lunch at Bella Baci the owners Sam & Christine were the fantastic hosts you would expect. The day went of very well with Sylvia and myself doing justice to 4 or so bottles of Jantz Champers !!!!!*********** Bloody great.
New years was spent at the same establishment with much the same results ***********
Sister Sylvia had a few problems with her van whilst she was here but all in all she now has a few ideas of what she wants to change or not with the van. It will be interesting to see it when she has finished with the rebuild. She had a good trip back to Barmera but had some bad news as two of her friends passed and so she had a couple of funerals to attend. Not a good way to start the year.
Fae has just started a part time job; she bought some new sheets and saw a note, wanting staff. She asked the lady and was told they really wanted a junior, no worries she said, paid for her purchase and was then asked if she would be interested?? Got the job nearly on the spot, works on three days a week and has a ball, no stress, aircond comfort. The place is Pure Zone in the DFO at Westcourt Cairns.
Well bye for now and we will keep you posted on our journey.
