Eleven days marooned. Found and delivered almost like a Xmas gift..... ;)

Two young boys missing with their father for more than a week in outback Queensland were "pretty hungry" when found, according to their rescuer - a local grazier..........Wagner, who has lived in the area for 40 years and runs 3,000 head of cattle in the park, said he knew he was onto something when he found tyre marks.

"I packed up my quad, and sandwiches and water and everything for them, and headed off and found some tracks of where they'd been about a week ago," he said.

"The tracks were pretty old in the rain, and so I knew they were in there."
