A few years ago my wife became friends with a beautiful couple from the Middle East.

I don’t like heights, and I’m disproportionally long-limbed, which means my centre of gravity is very low, about…

The sky was clear and dessicatingly hot, hovering in the mid 40s. Our destination for the night, Cobar, was some 450km…
