Packed Bodalla SF

The prick and company was noisy obnoxious, but quieted at 9PM. Late 4WDers talked loudly but shut down in unison.

Prick and Co made up for it earlier this morning. So much for birdsong and ambient nature. Rotten to have to hear the blunt loud drone of the bore.

But it wasn’t too bad. Feeling very hemmed in. Have to shift away from prickhead so might shower in Narooma (prick is likely to interrupt me after sticking his nose in the van) and try for another spot later. We’ll see how things unravel. Might be able to slip down a spot instead.

So now 9.20AM. Woke at 5AM, late, so it wasn’t too bad at all.

Waldrens Swamp And No Pests Yet

2.15PM. No one, in fact. Terrific surprise. Enjoying it while I can.

I’ve parked in the snippet of shade, which happens to be the spot The Pests Of Waldrens Swamp regard as “theirs”. I’ve been parking here for years, long before the curse of their discovering the place.

Maybe they are back home in Canberra and I can rest out the heatwave for the next three or four days.

I thought about staying in Bodalla State Forest but with everyone jammed in, and the prick-that ugly Australian selfishness-I just drove on past, after a Narooma shower.

3.30 PM

Yep. Idiot bullseye. I’m the only vehicle on this side of the rest area road. A van toddles in, sure enough, comes up behind me – and keeps on coming.

A bloke probably my age and demanding wife get out, up goes the top. I hear every word they say outside and inside the van.

It’s a stupidity phenomenon.

I start the car and move to a reasonable distance. They don’t match eye contact.

I can still hear them, though, just her voice droning on forcefully.

6 PM

Had to move. A pair of loud laughing cocoon-brains unbearable to be around, lost selfishly in noisy phone shit.

But am I now far enough away?

Next spot is in the truck section if they keep it up.

Equally nasty thing is heat from forced closed windows to block out the selfish brainless arseholes’ noise.
