Goodnight from Sydney

Some people just make life difficult for themselves (as anyone who has spent any time reading blogs will know).

A drink-driver has stopped police in central Australia to ask for directions to Uluru (Ayers Rock). He was just 100 metres from the world's greatest monolith. In fact the 44 year old New South Wales man was so close that police say the man's headlights were shining on the rock itself.

Police say although the incident took place in the dark, Uluru is 340 metres high and it is a 10 kilometre drive around its base.

Wherever you may be - be safe!
