Hints from Heloise

Keep a cheap-o 2x3 foot laundry bag rolled up in one of the saddlebags to use for when there's a over-flow of groceries to load. Stap that puppy on the back seat.

That is a good one. I keep a cargo net under the seat in a plastic freeze bag. I don't like cargo nets as they are annoying to get unraveled, but it comes in handy every once in a while.

I came up with the above when a load of groceries wouldn't fit in the two saddlebags. (I forgot to stow the usual parachute bag along.) Was glad the store had the laundry bags in stock.

I thought you Ozzies just like to get the job done?

Ah, you haven't met many Australian women, have you Neil?

I've met only a few travelers. I'd like to know more! When Ozzies travel they go for a long time.

You mean the great wall of Gina, Charlie ?

Yikes! Don't go there. Bad pictures in my head.

Gina Rinehart is one of our 'larger than medically recommended' mining billionaires - and world's richest woman in 2012.
She's big. Really big.

Ooh yuk Charlie, I didn't mean Gina as in open cu t,
I meant the great wall of vaChina. Impenetrable.

Some things are self evident ... thank dog .

I always carry my portable "overpass" - collapsible umbrella - to stay semi-dry during those sneak attack showers - also handy til the rain slows enough to don a rain suit - (helps to pull over pre-deployment)
