Not all Tojo drivers Carl, just Duchy. She was fair game. All jokes aside, Duchess was great to travel with, would team up with her again on our next run  without hesitation  :cup:. :cheers:

ok I'm confused... it's easily done I know  :-[

But if this is issue 38 and the Coolah Tops report is in Issue 20 then wouldn't have that been published before we even went there  ???  ???  ??? Or are we talking about the other publication  ???  ???

Yes...that other publication... ;D



Ok...so it was a kind of bizarre and funny story that needs to be told. It might as well be here.

I had sent off the Coolah Tops story not long after we did that trip to CTT and after a couple of months kind of had given up ever hearing that they had even received the story, let alone read it. So, I remembered that CTA had been sniffing around here for stories and so hunted up that thread and sent of an email. Got a pretty quick reply and it was all on for young and old...lo and behold, I'm published in a national mag not once but a two parter!! Happy with that...YES!!

You couldn't have laid money on this...

Literally, and I have the emails to prove it...the day after I have arranged everything with CTA, the other mag emails me to tell me that they're going to publish the Coolah Tops story.

True story...
 
 ;D

SO, not to, well, you know, brag too much about this...but you guys will get to read me in both CTA and CTT...

Now, get in line everyone... ;D

There's a pretty common theme there Dutchess.. CTT and their associated mags take forever where as CTA is very quick and easy.. There are a few lurking that would agree I'm sure.

Well done on your stories  :cup:

Yes, well done to you Duchess on your "CONVOY!" article, with a cameo mention of that great adventurer "Bullfrog".  Sounds like some nice country out that way.

 :cup: Also well done to "Joff" for his article "Outback Cunning" which gives travellers a great insight into what to expect from, and how to prepare for, a trip along the infamous Canning Stock Route.

Got this one in the post today, page 72 has a Convoy report (Darling Run - Part One)  :cup: by  our one and only Duchess.  Also good to see on the cover page they have inserted the My Swag logo.  Waiting for part two

HMMMM  Had a flick through that today, didn't realise it was written by a Swagie member, didn't notice the Swag logo either, might have to go back and buy it
