Well, just got back from my holiday.
First Lesson, don't let a person with PTSD try to plan a vacation.
After putting too much stress on myself, I started picking the shit out of our relationship for no apparent reason. I was a total arsehole to a perfect partner and friend. Without her, I would be no where.

Anyway, things settled down and we really enjoyed Tasmania. If you check it out on a map its in the middle of nowhere. We did a cruise along the Gordon River. Its near the top of the world heritage list. Some of the tree's there (Huon Pines) are over two thousand years old. Nature is awesome sometimes. Anyway, its on the west coast of Tasmania and when the wind is coming from the west there is nothing in its road for 8000 km of ocean, so its some of the most pure air in the world.

I have included two pictures, one of Mt Wellington near the capital Hobart, and one of the Gordon River.

Am back in business and will endeavor to answer any questions if needed.

Cheers guys

Welcome back! (if you know what I mean). Glad you had a good one mate. I think the next thing westwards must be the Falklands! Yep the air is really clean down there, even the light's different. Did you end up buying a cuddly Taz?

Welcome back Jimmy.

dunno bout that ned, all them pinguines and sheep :sick:

 

[Jimmy1]

lmao. Yep, Penguins and Sheep. I saw a few Tazzy Devils though.

 

[Ned]

Are they looking cute or just talking about whether you're good eating?

Welcome back Jimmy! Glad to hear you worked through the shit and had a good time. You needed it.

I really need to get up to the Redwoods. Perhaps a motorcycle trip.

Hey Jimmy, I think im confused. You went to taz, and had to go to a ZOO to see devils ???? that is just so much like the UK going to the zoo to see red squirels LMAO. The old hag who brought me into this world had a fit years ago when she was visiting, "theres a red Squirel in the garden" and I`m like "yeah?! and?" untill I remembered you only get them in zoos in the UK these days, she nearly wet herself, totaly hillarious.

Mate, they had the Tasmanian Tiger, which is now extinct, and the devils are susceptible to disease. They do live in the wild, but there are very, very few. The place we went to is a conservation park. Hopefully they can breed the numbers up and release more into the wild.
