As my son said to me the other day at the barbers, “Why does your haircut take so long Dad?”
Cheeky bugger
So I said “ Cause they’re still looking for it”

Front toolbox is wired up with lights and a 3 cig plug holder.
Just have to attach the big slideout kitchen to the camper, plumb it up and add power to it.
Then do some testing with the joolca shower and tent, spray one more mag on the trailer black. Only hopefully 2 weekends to do all this. Test pack.

Then start on the cruiser installing the 1000w inverter, a new start battery, new wind screen wipers, fix the electrical fault that has sprung up in the centre dash panel, plus other things.

Then start packing up our gear to send into Darwin for storage.

Not much really  :'(
