Any other suggestions would be greatly received, apart from the obvious "get a life"

Re: murder in the outback!
scary thing is i was working in Alice when it happened and the night she came into the emergency room. Very very odd stuff happening there is all i can say and when she was 'escorted' by the police around the town

My wild theory is the Bradley guy got rid of Falconio for her and in return she agreed to frame the other guy (the one with the long hair from the photofit that Bradley fell out with).
Ho-hum! Anyway, I bought my Eski at that Woolworths in Port Augusta!

My husband told me I was being silly but admitted once we were back at the hostel that he had been thinking the same thing as me but was just staying calm for my sake. eek:

Re: murder in the outback!
Brrr. That still freaks me out.
We had just returned from Aus when all thet happened.
We drove an almost identical VW kombi and got followed on that same bit of road by two rough looking guys in an old saloon driving really strange way. At first we thought we were being a little paranoid but after a while we got really scared.
We used to drive at a steady 80-90k for economy and respect for a 30 year old engine so it was unusual to see any one behind us for long.
This was the only time on our trip that we didn't feel safe.

The answer we got was "the guys round here don`t have alot to do - but at least they are looking"
we were only 22 - young and hardy and just shrugged it off really.
Funny though cause that night a mate (who slept in a swag) decided to tie it to the bumper of the van as he dind`nt want us to pi*s off with out him.
Good job I remembered he was there before we set off!
