Thanks for the "journey correction" Craig.

Each group/owner did shuttles to each destination a day apiece. The best
compromise for all concerned no doubt!

Tongala - the first one on Saturday went to kmp 219, which was a bit far,
later ones went to kmp 223.

usual. Shades of Echuca in times long past...
