Off to the Gulf in the morning.

Posted on September 4, 2012 by KG


We’re taking a back road with no towns at all for the first 400km. Which means no bloody tourists towing caravans, either.

    Yessir. The beer is packed sir, as are the rods and reels. :popcorn

    It’s probably the worst time of the year to go fishing up there, because it all happens either in the build-up to the wet season or just afterwards, but what the heck….

    Enjoy yourselves. It’s a long time since I’ve done somethng like this and I’m very envious. Remember to work out how much beer you need…..and then double it……………………………. and then double it again and you might just have enough. :cheers

      Yes,I find a good piece of double thick plastic sheet can be draped over the back seats and cargo area and then filled with cans of Beer followed by no less than 8″ of Ice.Run one open corner of the plastic out under the rear hatch and you have a handy drain for the melt water.It’s important to use Beer in cans though as bottles decrease the vehicles max GVW with non-drinkable weight.

      See,this blog gets more educashunable everyday :cheers

    Well, while you’re on your trip, if you happen to see a barge full of Sri Lankans who look like they need a lift, don’t forget to call these guys:
