The Gibbs Team leaves Australia on 4 Sept and last minute work is at a frenzied pace.
Paul is in Melbourne launching a new balloon, Lin will probably have to fly to India and back in the week, Mark is doing it tough white water rafting in the Victorian High Country and Deano is practising his German (we all hope!!)
At least we've all got the Rulebook to read on the plane.
