Tent
Hey Geoff (the OWL)
Do you want me to chuck a spare tent in the trailer for you to use (it's just sitting in the garage at present)

trip up the road
When we get up there and empty the trailer of the wood i can always put the trailer on tbe car and go for a drive and find some timber along the road like last year, that worked.

Anyone else.coming up on the Wednesday? ? ?

Hi there,
I am in
Toowoomba.
Van is in Mercedes Service Department.

Hoping it will be ready today (broke down last Saturday in tenterfield).

If all goes well, I hope to be able to come up early too.
But after a few days of minus 5 mornings in Tenterfield, and not much better in sunny Queensland (where I had to be towed to the Merc Dealer), I am in need of some warm nights first.

Also, after breaking down in Tenterfield on Saturday, and being told I would have to wait till Tuesday for a tow to toowoomba to nearest Merc dealer, and being told my van was too big for NRMA to tow and having to arrange my own tow, and finding Mercedes service booked out for over a week --- my Doctor rang me and told me my pathology had come back and he needed to see me urgently that day (Sunday) and knowing he does not work Sundays ---

Lets just say, I hope to be able to come to Bretti.

Apart from the firewood, Personal Note: remember the petrol for the generator(s) !!!

I have been meaning to ask Rick.
What sort of plug does the trailer have. ?
I have a rectangular one on my van.

It's a seven pin inline rectangular. Should fit if you have a standard female plug insert socket.

Fantastic Rick, thx mate.

I also helped The Wise Owl fill the trailer with the wood today.
Should be enough for a few days I reckon.

Looking forward to getting away.
