On the road again

We headed off on Sunday over to Ansu Leisure to fix up our awning that we bent at Streaky Bay last year. It was good to catch up with Andy and Sue. They are still going strong and the knowledge Andy has in the Euro vans never ceases to amaze me. He is right up to date with everything. It was a quick stop and we headed towards Sydney on Wednesday. A roadside stop near Wodonga and then in to Sydney Thursday Arvo has us here for a week. Rachel and I are doing an internet marketing course to brush up on some ideas that have been running around in our heads. This time we have brought our 2 dogs and 2 cats with us. The dogs love being in the Isabella Annex and the cats the expanse of the XK660 van. Love being on the road again. Wish I had my VW Touareg though, this time we have had to settle for a Nissan Pathfinder ST-L, still pulls well though. E-newsletter is nearly finished. Should be out this week.

Catch you on the track

Geist in Australia

Hi Everyone in Geist land. It has been a roller coaster ride with the Geist promo van lately. I became a bit inactive on the blog, hence the last post still in WA. My appologises to those following me on the road. We did come down the West coast to Perth, then down to Bremer Bay again, we picked up my parents in Perth and took them back with us to the east coast. On the way we caught up with the Flints, fixed their battery problem. We then dropped into Streaky Bay and then across to Adelaide for the get together in the Barossa Valley. That was December last year. We then had some time off over Christmas before heading back to our Southern base near Bairnsdale Victoria. From there the bad things started to happen. The news coming out of the media was doom and gloom with the downturn and then the boss rings me and after some discussing I suggest I take a holiday until things sort themselves out. Unfortunately about 6 weeks later they go into receivership. This has left Rachel and I on the outer a bit but we are still determined to keep the Geist brand going in Australia. We still have our XK660 and intend to keep the owners club going. We are planning some trips again soon but until then the forum is the best place to catch up with me or Geist info, the link is http://www.phpbb88.com/geist/portal.php?mforum=geist With 600 posts about Geist, it is a hive of information. We plan to have an international feel to the forum soon so UK and Euro owners, you too can ask the questions and maybe answer some too!

But until I get on the road again, maybe June, the same applies as all ways.

Catch you on the track!
