If you guys were at Chaffey, I could have nicked down from Manilla to do that Geoff, but Bretti is a bit far.

I am trying to get away today ( Tuesday ) as I have finished my jobs for the day.
If I get packed before midday, I will leave and have enough time to set up before dark.

See you all there.

At last the weather forecast seems to be improving for Bretti.
Tomorrow (Wednesday) is still a right off (rain).
But it seems set to improve after that.

Packing in progress, plan to head up tomorrow, no set time, but not too early.

Great, thanks Geoff! I'll confirm once I've received domestic approval

Is there mobile phone signal up there? And I'm assuming as there's no running water there's no shower
