WEDNESDAY 2 JULY 2008

Mallala is a nice little country town. Has the necessities, an IGA, Pub, Post Office, Petrol Station, Police Station and a Grain Store. It also has the V8 Supercars racetrack just out of town. Its not a very fancy track – very basic. This morning I thought you ripper, lets fit the bracket and get going, you wouldn’t believe it, the nice old fella had welded the gussets on the wrong side so it wouldn’t fit.
LESSON NO. 4- Nice old man that does job on spot and cheap not necessarily a good thing.







This meant another trip to another engineering joint out of Mallala. The lady at the IGA gave us his number and what a joint. It was huge. Must have had about 20 employees or more. It was Mike Sharman who make Silos, etc. They also had a little hardware store there that had everything and was priced well. Cause it was late afternoon by the time we got sorted, we decided to stay another night at Mallala and head off the next morning.
