Hey Rob, I don't know how that image got into the slideshow I'll ask Dr G who put it the whole shebang together (all the other photos and recordings (including music) are his, yep that's him singing "silver HQ" and on guiter in "She starts").
Maybe you could tax him a tinnie when next at the lake?
I know he didn't get paid for it which was OK until another mate came out the following year with his trip fully funded by the Age!!!
Now why didn't we think of that?

I can't take it any more!!!
I know we will get a full report on the condition of the lake once the teams at ground zero get back, however has anyone had a phone call from the lake to give us a bit of an idea on the condition of the lake surface.
Also if anyone is talking to someone up there could you ask them to check on the condition of "The Sick Lizard" (yellow XC wagon) that is parked with the Moe Boys car ie: are the tyres still up, has it rusted away yet etc etc. as I haven't seen it for a couple of years.
Regards Mark.

I have had a brief text from Dr Goggles saying that he and Pete are now both in Woomera having gone around the back of Lake Gairdner and that the "lake was hard but the access stuffed."
Sorry I cannot be more specific that is all the info I received.
They both met Dirty Dave on the way (hello) and Outback Trev.
Before they left we used google maps to mark all the tracks we could find around Island Lagoon onto a map so they could do an exploratory mission there which is where they are now and out of range.
One positive aspect of Island Lagoon is its proximity to the Stuart Highway (it actually crosses the lake to the north) and to Pimba railway station. Catch a train to the salt anyone? Maybe a DLRA carriage?
More details to come when I receive them.
