    Yes Bass Strait can be very rough, found that out going to NZ on a cruise a couple of years ago. Had 6-8m swells on the way home too, lasted for 2 days.

    Anyway, enjoy your trip and don't forget to share any highlights.

    In Adelaide now, and a few people reckon it was a pretty average crossing at best.

    Finally got the LED strip fitted. A big thanks to Smithy who gave me the LED strip and connectors to do this (saved me big time)

    Both pictures were taken from same spot, with garage lights off and just adjusted to full and minimum brightness on the remote.

    Got a feeling that there will be a fair bit of rubbish & smelly stuff going in there in only a bit over a weeks time. Bring on the school holidays.

    Nice bag Palmer you have there, and before anyone says it, I am talking about the one on the back of the vehicle. We have the same on and some of the smelly stuff we have had in it sure beats having it in the car.

    Not to long to go now then Craig?

    This is one of my favourite additions. No more smelly rubbish in or on the car. A must have when camping out of your vehicle i reckon.

    The hight of the garage doors (plus the fact it is a triple garage) was one of the big points when I agreed to buy the place.

    Hels biggest worry now is if it will be too high for drive-throughs and under cover car parks when we are on the mainland.
