"I think he was just so worried, the poor bugger."

Understatement?

Glad you are ok.
Any idea on the cause? You weren't setting of fireworks in the cabin to celebrate Australia Day were you?

[img]bad day at work 2013-012[/img]We will never really know what the cause was, but something let go and lost a lot of oil, lots of oil on the road and oil on the exhaust ignited. I managed to save most of my gear from the cab, except my sleeping bag and my wet weather gear.

Tiz good you are OK but it sure is a bad feeling when you have to just stand there and watch it go up and you haven't got any marshmellows. Very Happy
