Fund-raising for the local CFA brigade. Roast, veg and salad and lots of desserts - usually all you can eat then, and early am snacks for the next two nights!

Stephen.
The tent is more adventuress because of all the snakes in Snake valley
The roast is just a culinary delight for the taste buds

Please let me know when you made a decision
