Info Centre

 Drove into Normanton and it was pretty much a hole.   Called into the Info Centre to find out where we could get fuel.   The only what you would call "service station " was closed.  Why?   Cos it was Saturday and they had all gone shooting.   Of course, why not. Who cares about business.   Anyway we fuelled up at the General Store, cheaper anyway.    Fuel has been at its most expensive at $1.70/Lt. for diesel but we didnt think it was too bad actually as it had been $1.67 at Cairns.  Took a quick look around at the touristy stuff, which isnt much and then left town.   The croc below is a replica of one shot in the 50s.   He measured 8.6 Metres long.   Sad to think he may have been over 100 years old to have reached that size.    What an outrage it would be today if something like that were to happen.   Back then they were heroes.    No hope of getting a spare tyre here so we hope we dont blow another tyre.   We will be truly stuffed.
