Quick update it is yet again pouring down rain lot of flooding now in my area. My first day off since here. I tried to go to toowamba (the "big city") to shop for stuff. It was a bad trip. I was overwhelmed to 1 see stop lights again, 2 to make sure did not stall out the manual ute, 3 a lot of other pedestrians and cars. Between all this I could not focus on the left side of the road. I ended up into oncoming traffic couple of times. That is when I was politely told by a police officer to park my vehicle for a while and he phoned me a taxi. By the time I got to the stores they were closed and it was pouring rain. I decided not to spend the night and try tomorrow but drove the 2 hrs back to the clinic. On my way home I tried again to drive to auburn australia. The road had a lot of creeks to pass over. The second time I crossed a creek and water came into my floorboards I decided to once again give up and hide back at the clinic. I at least was on auburn rd. I will download pictures today.
The only good news is I have tonight off and belong to a club where I get free access to a shuttle for pickup and drop off after my troubles today will be nice not to drive tonight.
P.S. I blame the clinic for my driving troubles. I have to drive three different utes each manual and each clutch behaves differently based on certain situations.
