Bubbles meets Gertie in outback SA

[Hillbilly]

Whilst returning to Queensland from WA last week with the Sunliner in tow we pulled into a little town in outback SA and spotted
(the ex Kingy and Mez's) Supalite caravan "Gertie" being towed back to WA by its new owner David



So of course we pulled over outside the Olary Hotel and had a chat to David who was on a long return journey with his newly purchased Gertie from Mareeba in FNQ back to WA (a round trip of 11000kms), now that's dedication ;D ;D



You've done well to preserve Gertie in that condition Kingy, especially after living in the stinking hot Pilbara, she still looks great



And we couldn't even have a beer at the Olary pub because it wasn't open....bugger... !!

G'day Billy,

Funny who you run into when your not expecting it isn't it? A friend of ours camped next to the Kingys in (I think) Broome a couple of years ago, got talking, and worked out that they all knew me.

Good to see the Supalite is travelling well though. It's covered a good number of k's since the Kingys did it up. Just goes to show the quality of their workmanship.

By the way, nice looking truck beside the pub. Is it a Commer? Didn't happen to buy it did you? Just pop it in the back of the Sunliner... ;D ;D ;D
