Found a turn off that did not seem to be a farmers track and drove a long it for a while, then popped out on a sealed track. Drove further along the track to the end. By now it was just a gravel muddy track. A few roads had headed off to the lake so we walked down one and there was a hut and people so walked out again. Just parked 10m off the road in a clearing. Although we heard a few gun-shots from the fisherman it was a quiet night.
During cooking a soup for dinner the stove overheated. Two pots and on high…. When I tried to restart flashed yellow – glow plug problem. Ha! we had the solution - a new glow plug! It was duly installed when the stove was cool enough to touch and yes it started… Got dinner in the end but the beans were a little underdone.
