Good on you - from where you started that's gettin up to a Melb Syd drive in one run.  Thanks for the ummm note!

 

I take it by Rab's post this cruise is definitely ON :thumbsup:

 

Hey Rab - was fuel cheaper along the way?

 

Limestone Coast looks good - we did a family holiday at Beachport ages ago!

 

Can hear the F1s do their practice runs this morning :3gears:

Okay and good range from LPG.  I once did Esperance to Perth outskirts on one tank in a NA XR6 hire car - thats close to 800km.  Couldn't believe the economy.  But farrk me some of those roads were the straightest roads I've ever driven so far ...

Reset the meter once you leave Melbourne and cry when you get to Adelaide because it'll probably never look that good again ;)

Just wanted everyone to remember to look out for the free donuts along the way ;)

Most are hard to miss, normal donut vans, but this one follows you between the 2 towns trying to force the glazed option on you.

Safe trip k31th :thumbsup:  That's a nice 10,000 km since Nov :roflmbo:  Fords just keep on keeping on ...

 

I'm charging up my batteries (cameras, CB) whilst I look for stuff to pack.  

 

I paid $1.49 per litre for 98 RON yesterday at local 7Elevien (for Mobil).  Sounds like Ballarat is the place to fill up the jerry can as well!

 

I'm aiming to meet up with you guys at about 9am at Belair on Sat morning so I can collect cabin keys before they close and join you all on the cruise over to Birdsword Museum :drivingalong:

Speak for yourself

 

Currently got the F1's on Foxtel, music blasting and working remotely in the cabin.

 

Might go oil my pod later.
