[Smile for the day]

Mick attended the KOG monthly meeting and had just told them he couldn't make the upcoming annual Innamincka trip because his missus wouldn't let him go.

After copping "the under the thumb remarks and other derisive remarks" Mick left to go back home to the missus.

Later when Mick's mates started arriving to set up camp at Innamincka common the following week, who should be there but Mick sitting up in front of the Nissan, swag rolled out, fishing rod in hand, and the camp oven roast stewing away in a hot bed of Coolabah coals.

"Geez how did ya talk ya missus into letting you come here Mick?" they asked.

"I didn't have to," was Mick's reply, "When I left the meeting last week I went home disappointed and slumped down in my chair with a beer to drown my sorrows. Suddenly the missus snuck up behind me and covered my eyes and said, 'Surprise'.

"When I peeled her hands back there she was standing there in a beautiful see through negligee and she said, 'Carry me into the bedroom and tie me to the bed and you can do what ever you want"

SO HERE I AM!!

With the number of people heading to The Cape this year, perhaps we could have a "Cape York KOG Gathering". lol

:laugh:

You laugh Sue, I was starting to think it would be a good idea to have a North Queensland Gathering at Miriwinni or Bramston Beach or such.

We have the park across from our house where the grey nomads gather every year.

BUT! first we have to get our new van so we can join in :thumbsup:

Hello Bruce and Sue.

We now have just over 100,000 klms up on our F250 most of which has been towing, we fortunately have never had a broken back window.

In the first instance we tried a lot of different ideas, covers, rubber belting, etc, etc.

Then we purchased a towtector and have used it ever since.

We purchased over the internet and they sent it off to us, very happy with their service.
