The sharp eyed or even the just plain awake among you will have noticed the change of location in the title.
We are on the move!!
It was in doubt this morning since there were several heavy showers overnight and the morning light was tinged with cloud. However as rain was not falling we started packing. Presently the cloud lightened and sun appeared fitfully. It was enough to get the canvas sufficiently dry to pack it. It was a rush in the finish since some very dark clouds rolled in. Our preparations complete we said out goodbyes to Carl and Kit promising Carl we will return for a "room reveal" a term familiar to all block tragics.

We headed up the road to Irene's (we met her at Carl's) house for a cuppa on our way out. It was a roundabout trip since I had only half listened to the directions relying on the GPS which Susan programmed to take us to the same street in Grafton. After a quick chat and some date loaf we headed towards Lismore in the gathering gloom arriving well after dark at 630. I am beginning to think the eastern seaboard needs to be at least another 30 minutes ahead of GMT since it is sun up around 640 and sunset at 515.
We refuelled at Lismore and had an eat in at Ying's Chinese and Thai. It was then up the road to Kyogle along a fairy foggy road for 35km. We are in the showground camping area adjacent to other vans. I guess the caretaker will catch up with us tomorrow. The ground is quite damp but we have the tarp and swag down, awning over head per usual so with the soft grass a snug nights sleep ahead. Kyogle is a bigger town than it's dot on the map so we might have look around in the morning and see if it has laundromat. There was plenty of mud at Gulmarrad and much of it is in our laundry basket.
We have around 350km to go to reach Imbill according to my illustrious navigator. One day or two that is the question!
Night folks
Cheers Simon
