Really considering telling the boss I need the rest of the week off, jumping in my car and driving somewhere untill Sunday. I have done zero to prepare for this but I could make it happen. Feeling pretty low this week.

Up the NSW south coast. Merimbula is beautiful, and the Tathra Hotel has amazing views.

Looking at NSW coast but a little further north where the sun is apparently shining, probably aim for the Shoalhaven area. Boss has approved. Just packing my suitcase now.

Nice one - nothing soothes the mind more than hours on the open road.

You going up the coast? or straight up the guts? The coast is a longer drive, but it is a nicer drive.

Straight up. I've done it the long way around a couple of times and it's a long long way of nothing much interesting so it's the M31 for me just to get there quicker.

I'm feeling the same, really low low rider this week. Driving to work this morning and the city looked so pretty in the distance that I damn near just kept driving.
