"Lucky Pigs" is the name given to our Winnebago motor-home by the previous owners who had friends from New Zealand who used to call them "Lucky Pegs" because they were living and traveling in the Winnebago around Australia as we are now doing. "Lucky Pigs" in New Zealand are equivalent to "Lucky Buggers" here in Australia. We decided to keep the existing name after purchasing it in February 2010.

BRIDGEWATER
We are still doing volunteer work for BlazeAid at Bridgewater, we were going to head on to their other base camp at Charlton but one of the local farmers we have met here has had to move out of his house, so we agreed to help Lorraine move all their house contents to Bendigo. But BlazeAid agreed to help as well so Peter has been helping do the farm work whilst Lesley, Lorraine and other BlazeAid volunteers have been packing and moving everything to Bendigo for the last week. Peter has been driving tractors and even ploughing the paddocks in order to get them ready to plant canola crops on the farm. Tomorrow Lesley, Lorraine and Anabel are coming out to the farm to help clean flood debris etc. from some fences.
