Comments: Andrew, this is quite an extraordinary achievement. From idea to execution reveals a determined mind to carry the dream through. I recently read 'Tanami' and can sense that your determination to fulfill Capricorn Exp was partly due to your debilitating illness when a young man. Good on you! Tom R.
Comments: Hi Andrew, I am fascinated by you and what you have achieved traveling this great country by foot with those wonderful camels I'm thinking one day I will join in on one of your camel treks what a great experience it would be. Thanks for your stories keep going Andrew we are all thinking of you. Kathy.
Comments: I enjoyed your site very much. Thank you!
Comments: First met you and companions on the CSR in 1999, close to Durba Springs, and when I returned home, followed your trek on-line. Was devastated to hear of the death of your mate, Mac. As far as I can see, you have not had a canine companion on your treks since. Any particular reason why not? Read of your trek with the banker Kieran Kelly in 2002, up and across the Tanami Desert, and was absolutely fascinated, though screaming for the background info. I doubt that you would repeat that. These days, I am getting close to passing the gates of the Knackery, and do little travelling, so am extremely envious of yourself and others who continue enjoying the roving life, especially with camels. I have to travel with motor vehicle, and my associates at all times have been two canine companions. Two were with me on the Canning, but stayed in the vehicle at the time to avoid perhaps upsetting your mates. Camels I love, and take every opportunity to have contact with them, particularly when visiting the Alice. I had an association with three beautiful members of the genre at a place called Morven in S.West. Qld. for some months, back some years ago. I gather that you are now escorting scientific expeditions into the deserts, and still hopefully enjoying the good life. As someone commented, would love to read your personal stories. But then, indeed, they ARE personal. Good luck, and best wishes. |
