The above was early light. Then this unfolded. Lovely morning indeed.

UPDATE 8.00 AM

First flies.

UPDATE 9 AM

Messing around with a new Brave browser and now getting the heck out of here because of flies. I’ll try to shower at Cobargo pool.

UPDATE 3 PM

Walked aimlessly around Bermagui. Incidentally, the Cobargo shower isv 20c coin and takes two coins for a good length. Best value anywhere. On to Bermagui to try to find potable water and reading glasses. Nothing. But found a tap near the surf lifesavers spot and filled up bottles.

No purpose. Dodging arseholes at Moruya, that’s all. Too windy and too many flies to paint.

I’m out at Quaama hilltop again, cool strong wind and flies inside the van not relentless this afternoon.

It’s been interesting looking around, nevertheless. I could live down this way But no supermarket except at Narooma, Bermagui and Bega.

Lost soul in lost days, counting down the worst period of the year.

This is in the south side of Bermagui:

UPDATE 4.40 PM

As for the flies mentioned above, they hadn’t found me yet. Covered in them since. Horror.

UPDATE 7.50 PM

Spicy sausages that I nearly threw up. Cold wind, no one at the rest area.

This is 100x of the rockface high up on the eastern mountains.

UPDATE 8.20 PM

I took these shots because I needed an excuse to get out of the car in case I had to deal with a cunt-jead. There’s one car way up yonder in 200 yards of car spots and cunt head pulls in 7 feet from my car. I catch him at his car and sure enough he’s staying the night.

Far too close, mate. He pulls his car back.

Next step, doof doof. I don’t want to get out again. So far, nice and quiet. But when you get a fucking thoughtless prick then it’s usually more than one problem. Fingers crossed.

But I can’t believe it. The other car up the way even remarked on how close he parked. It looked ridiculous, jammed up to mine when there’s 200 yds. And in the middle of nowhere, where space is what it’s all about. Unreal.
