Yet again Aussies wanting to recreate the wheel.

22 hours each way... 44 hours return... 2 trips a month...

Ahhhhh toooooooo much time at home will be the issue?

Seriously WTF!
I actually agree with you, but I think you will find the duty period will be closer to 24 hours, 48 hours round trip.

Thats 144 hours hours for 3 trips in 8 weeks. With divisors currently sitting around 140 - 150 hours, I would be quite happy with 3 trips every 8 weeks!
