During her morning walk around Louth this morning Nina came upon the sign in the first photo and the ex-school teacher in her was horrified that the words on the second line were not spaced.

On a more frustrating note, last night while setting up camp in Louth we noticed one of the latches that holds the popup-tent closed had broken during the day. This is not the first time so we know in principle what to do as a temporary fix. Two ratchet straps. However I thought this would be an "easy trip" so did not bring such straps. Hence today was occupied finding the shortest route to an autoparts store. It turned out to be Cobar.

After getting the straps and lashing down the tent we headed towards Wilcannia and stopped for the night at Bulla Park Rest Area. Not very selubrious but workable.
