Introducing George

Before we head off into the outback I thought it was time you met our travelling companion.

His name is George and he travels in the Moke when we’re on the road. It is really funny to see the looks on people’s faces as they spot him when we’re parked anywhere . When we stop and set up camp he usually sits in the passenger seat of the bus and creates a real talking point.

We tell people he’s our security guard. Also, as we have house sitters at home, we couldn’t leave any skeletons in the cupboard.

We get comments such as – “you need to feed him up a bit!” “Is it the boyfriend or the girlfriend?” “Where does he sleep?”
