Day 8 Coen to Bramwell Station

We packed up early & just as we were leaving Charlie offered to give us a demo of his home made gold sieving machine, which is powered by 4 Toyota Hilux gearboxes!!! An offer to good to refuse.
After this we headed into Coen for a quick & surprisingly cheap repair to the starter motor regulator.
With the car fixed we hit the road north to Bramwell Station. The development road north of Coen seems to be a bit better, but alot duster & at times you can't see the road in front of you.
We reached Bramwell by lunchtime & decided to set up camp at Bramwell Station. Bramwell is the northern most cattle station in Australia and is over 1300km's in size.
This was a great spot to camp and there was even a bar which served some pretty good meals so it was Cook's night off.
It was great to relax in the shady bar with a beer and dinner and there was even a comedian there as entertainment.
We ended up staying 2 nights at Bramwell.
