Come up and camp at my place for a few days...he says

[Marvo]

Yeah, a buddy of mine sold his house and bought himself a few hundred hectares in the middle of nowhere about 6 months ago. I haven't heard a peep out of him for 6 months then out of the blue he's Captain Hospitable. Come for a ride up on your bike he says, spend a few days he says, don't worry about anything I'll sort out food and a fridge full of beer...he says, even offers petrol money.

Took awhile to get to the cause of the sudden onset of hospitality but eventually I got these photos and a sob story about getting shocks in the shower and from appliances.

I didn't ask too many questions but this is his newly self-installed off-grid system.

 

[Richard Burns]

Installed by a blind plumber?

 

[Barry White]

Won't be much of a "holiday"

 

[Marvo]

Yeah, I've decided not to take him up on his kind offer and rather to advise him from a safe distance.
