Sorry everyone, I'm now a non-starter. As with the recent Snake Valley camp, I've had a major weekend meeting moved - you guessed it, Bretti weekend

Have a great time! One day, I'll make it. Eric

Hi everyone,

Have just finished moving house - what a nightmare! Now I need to figure out where everything is.

The house move has used up most of my annual leave so it'll be Saturday night only for me. Managed to buy a half-price tent in the Kathmandu sale. Will probably need some help putting it up! Aiming to arrive by mid-afternoon.

No Problems Morton,

We can be bribed into some manual labour for a tent set up with cleansing beverages if need be.

Great to hear you are coming.
bring any firewood you may have , even if its a little bit.

And Arthur,

9.30 should be OK at the servos. We better tell Alan its 8.30 though.... Only kidding Alan.

Cheers.

Geoffro

firewood

To Morton, we look forward to catching up with you.

Might throw this out to any "closet campers" who are thinking will i go? maybe or maybe not: go on, let your hair down and come join us all for this great time, beautiful skies, great company, a lot of fun and relaxation, it is a very informal camp and everyone helps out each other. Now that is great friends for you!!

Thinking back to the amount of fallen timber there was up there a couple of months ago we may be alright but better to be safe than sorry.

I don't have a chain saw though! but i have a crosscut saw, a bush saw, an Axe and a Tomahawk: Any volunteers???

PS will leave the boat at home this time

Only 3 working days until we head off.

So who's leaving on the Wednesday with myself and Arthur ?

The days should be nice, but I'll be packing the "woollies" for the nights.

I may have to stop and get an Apple Charlotte for the first nights viewing.
That is of course, unless it fails to make it all the way up there....
