Skippy had a job washing windscreens at the service station at Wilpena Pound, she'd have to wash a lot of windscreens to get that new DSLR for her joey's Christmas present. "I hope Megan tips well, her windscreen was filthy" she mused.

I was amused to watch this kangaroo drink from the windscreen washing bucket next to the fuel pumps in the Wilpena Pound Park. There were kangaroos and emus wandering around everyone, but this was the cheekiest one I saw. I hope the bucket didn't also have detergent in it, but I think not as the 'roo seemed to enjoy the drink.
haha hope she did a good job! faved
