In celebration of Peter, against all odds making it to 70 sometimes inglorious years of age a lap around Central Australia was suggested or perhaps just evolved. The logic of this trip is about to be tested as three ageing would be nomads strike out north and then west to test the patience of each other and that of the local indigenous personnel.

This brief summary of the sojourn will be by design mostly pictorial as at least some of it’s target audience have not read much since starting on Winnie the Pooh some years ago (currently on chapter three Pooh meets Piglet).

So, brief outline of trip… Richmond, Narrabri, Lightning Ridge, Cunnamulla, Quilpie, Birdsville, Alice Springs, Finke, Coober Pedy, Port Augusta, Silverton, Broken Hill, Home…and a few stops in between.
