The red soil of the outback is known as bull dust. It’s red, it’s very fine and once it gets into your car, caravan or even a suitcase it’s almost impossible to clean out.
‘Caravanner’ drives the inland road through WA in the brand new van. He complains to the missus that it’s not dust proof like the old one before realising that he left the roof hatch open causing the dust to be sucked in through the vent at the bottom of the door and out through the roof. They’re still getting the dust out a year later.

Yep, know what you mean. Same thing happened to us on our return from Mungo and the Flinders.

Years later it drops out of hidden places to remind you of the time you went to the Pilbara ….

Oh yes indeed. I’ll swear it hides in the joinery then a few puffs fall out after you put the vacuum away.

The car and caravan are like a magnet to red dust…..pretty hard to get rid of isn’t it.
