Things I've learnt in the Territory

1. No hat is too big
2. 130ks an hour can feel slow and is often just a suggestion
3. Road trains are like taxis in Sydney, unpredictable - keep out of their way
4. Dental health in Australia is non existent
5. Wild animals are very very stupid especially when it comes to very big cars
6. Strangers are not to be trusted and customer service will arrive in the territory in 2015
7. There's remote, then there's Remote (e.g. 80ks on a sealed rd verses 4 hours, half on dirt and a $500 barge to get across the river)
8. Good coffee is a rare commodity to be treasured
9. Scabies can be transmitted through shaking hands
10. Shoes are always optional
11. The road is a safe and comfortable place to sleep, especially after a few green cans
