Being absolutely knackered we stayed in the Roper River caravan park for a day. Quite basic (only a small solar panel to power a string of fairy lights in the amenities block and a small solar water heater) but clean and OK.

Tried fishing below the crossing  (bar) but again no luck. Walking to and from I came across several wild camps (aborginals?) with impressive and reasonably fresh fish skeletons and cherubin (a sort of large prawn) so if you know how to do it the fish will bite. White fellas don’t know how to do it.

I dropped my rear-vision mirror off my handlebars on the way up the the shop and sweated until I finally found it (lucky) just before leaving the next day.
