Currently in Queensland

We crossed over into Queensland on Sunday and spent the night in a town called St George, where the local show was in full swing. After sunset we heard what sounded like shots which scared the heck out of a huge flock of pink crested galahs that decided to relocate to the trees over our camp. Later when the real fireworks started it frightened them to the extent all our vehicles became "christened" with bird poo! The lowing of cattle started the morning, followed by long queues at the fuel bowsers while lines of cattle trucks and horse floats refuelled.Then when we tried to leave town, I was breathalyzed by to two policewomen.
Then we discovered that most of the show vehicles were "going our way" as we have arrived at the time of the show circuits, so we will try and get ahead of their schedule.
