Another one gone missing

Here's another one but I suspect this guy is an aborigine out Thunderbox way. There's a lot of 'em out that way looking for patches. I pulled a car load of 'em home to Leo last year - no windscreen, no back window, only three tyres and running on the rim on one rear wheel, 10 people in the car and the rear door held shut with a big wad of black gaffa tape!

Some rough country out west of Thundebox and not often frequented either.

If I was religious I'd say, christ not again, but I'm not religious.
So here we go again. What does it take to get thru to thickheads, get a friggin GPS.

An aborigine with a GPS??? Are you serious Cliff?

Bush supplies for an aborigine - a detector, enough food & water for two days and a rifle. That's it. A GPS??? Nah,,,,,,,

I've lived with 'em for weeks at a time out there and a fantastic experience it was as well.

Hmmm,,,,,,,perhaps he could be a "whitey" after all!

love your description of the car, unfortunate backstory.... but I think I passed that car bout 50 clicks from leo the other day...they managed to fix the tyre and that's about it lol

Reminds me of the aboriginal bush mechanics on TV a while ago

From today's Kal Miner:

He's been found. He was sheltering in old shaft. No further details

It was a white guy who lives in Leo and he should know better!!!
