gyday
we have just taken a trip to the errinundra national park in victoria australia in my ford transit motorhome. the errinundra platue is over a thousand metres above sea level and is still the old growth forrest, cool temperate and warm temperate rain forrest, of the ancient gondwanna continent such a spectacular and absolutly marvelouse natural enviroment . we saw numerouse animals, birds and fish such as goannas, snakes, echidnas, roos, wallabies, wombats, possums, dingos and birds to many to count such as gang gangs, parrots, gallahs, cockatoos, bellbirds, lyrebirds to name just a few, to awake in the morning to an orchestra of music from these magnificent
creatures is thing worth more than seeing ledzepplin live and fish unbeleavable all in this outstanding setting of ancient rain forrest and many other types of old, old, old jungle.we met awide range of people including KING JOHN an aboriginal elder who is the traditional [king] of the BIDWALY people who have been living in this area for over fifty thousand years. we met other people as well forrest workers,farmers, bottonists and abrave bunch of enviromental saviours called the geecko warriors what outstanding humans fighting to keep this area as natural as possible protecting it from the multinational wood chippers.anyway back to our transit we have just brought it, i gave it an oil change and attempted to tune it , plugs rusty, dizzy cap cracked and pitted and every thing else as dirty as can be. i couldn't do a very good job but it went bloody fantastic up and down these dusty, rutted and very windy dirt tracks and were some of them steep and the old ford transit didn't miss a beat apart from the incorrect tuning. anyway i must get going now. Oh by the way i thought i saw a Tasmainian Tiger in part of the cool temperate rainforrest, i tried to track it but couldn't get far because of the incredably thick jungle but i have never seen any thing like it in my life a hugh wide jaw and strange rear end with a solid tail and amazing stripes on its back and flanks to tell you the truth it made my hairs on my back stand on end sent me into flee or fight mode seeya later moniquesftw :)
