Loveday forum meet up - Who's really going???????

[AB]

Hi All,

We put up this national meet up at Loveday for this Easter back over 12 months ago and I think a lot of people got excited and I understand things change as the year goes by so let's do another poll to see who actually is going to be there this Easter?

Do you 100% plan on going to Loveday this Easter?

Please answer above. I'll PM everyone who voted last time and please reply up here so we get true numbers this time.

We'll see how the numbers pan out over the next couple of weeks...

[Bigrig]

I was obviously one of the original "I just like pressing buttons to mess up polls" people!!! lmao

Unfortunately, it's a no go for us - looking at still having holidays, however, just not fair on the family to do 2000klms down to SA for 2-3 days at the expense of time on the holiday to see Ayres Rock, Big Red etc ... my apologies, however good timing AB as I reckon that original poll is pretty flaky anyway (more than half the attendees don't even frequent the forum much if at all these days).

As per our discussion, I will be posting up information for a National Meetup later in the year in Queensland - not a competitive thing by any means and for those still going to Loveday, it would be great if you could do both (we're talking end of October, so 9 months away). Full details to follow ...

[Sir Roofy]

were up for loveday looking forward to it

[AB]

It will be good mate, I'm 100% in too. There are a couple of others I know that are coming who dont use the forum so add another 2 cars to this.

[growler2058]

Bells, whistles an chillli im in hahahahahahaha

[MudRunnerTD]

I am 98%. I have told the wife and been talking about it for a few months. The easter week will be the perfect timing and this should be a winner.

The sky may fall in and that will be the 2% but Me, my Wife Naomi, our 6yo Son Zach and our 9mth old (by then) girl Amelia.

Travelling in the GUIV towing the Tambo Camper.

HELL YEAH!!!

[fixer982]

We'll be there either in my 99 Troll or my newer 2008 Troll if the dealer ever gets it sorted. Even turned down a trip to the Flinders to be there. It will be good to finally put the faces to the names.

[AB]

100% keen and will put in for leave tomorrow. What are the dates again?

Hey mate, The first public holiday for Easter is the Friday the 6th of April....2 days after my birthday....presents are welcome...lol

Now, I'm thinking heading up on that day and staying for however long. I'm taking 2 weeks off and will stay there for however long, probably mid week the following and either head across to a friends station only just down the road and/or head down to Tocumwal for some fishing so anyone is welcome to follow too.

I'm super flexible with these dates too so we can head up earlier if need be but I reckon most people will be wanting to leave on the first public holiday of the Easter break which is the Friday 6th April.

Public holidays are as follows...

Good Friday Friday 6 April
The Saturday before Easter Sunday Saturday 7 April
Easter Monday Monday 9 April

[AB]

HERE YA GO PLASSY

EASTER 2012 APRIL
WEDNESDAY THE 4th TILL TUESDAY 10th

What ya reckon?????????? Lol

[Chaz]

Sorry Guy's, but I'm out too. I'll finally be starting a new job that I've been after for a while and being shift work, will have to work the weekend, so hopefully next time.
Hope you all have a good time,

[AB]

Errr.....a few of us lost bets on the Aussie Rules thread ages ago biggus. Being a cane toad I don't expect you've read it but Patch, myself and DXie lost BIG TIME and shamed ourselves severely. The original bet was also to carry it through to the inaugural National Forum Meeting but I may very well pull the pin on that one! I expect patchy will do the same but DXie seems to be champing at the bit to get his gear off again! LOL!!

AB you better be looking forward to the "dreamboat of the west" coz I don't think the vic boys will come through with this one.

Shame Shame Shame...lol

We are and you know it...........but the never-ending international regurgitation of those pics since then wasn't in the original deal so I say our dues are paid!

Oh I love the way you brain works old mate & its 2 against one so I'd say we got this in the bag........................hahahahahahahahaha

[DX grunt]

Am I going - 100% yes or no?

The answer will have to be no. My eldest dumped on me about 2 months ago he is getting married in July this year and wants me to fork out, and I can't say no. I reckon I won't get much change out of $5k from the trip over east and help pay towards a wedding as well. To say I'm disappointed is an understatement, but I just can't financially do both. Hope you'll understand.

While I'm here, I'll have to say no to the meet in Qld, too.

Hope you all understand.

Take care out there.

It's challenging enough for us Sandgropers to meet in WA - given the distances we have to travel - locally.

One day it will happen. One day.

[DX grunt]

Really really sorry to hear you cant come Rossco, but i suppose thats life eh? was sooo looking forward to meeting you face to face mate, so maybe some other time.

looking forward to meeting everyone, ill be present for sure!

[AB]

Number are building now, great work guys and look forward to meeting you all!!!

[rusty_nail]

just to throw it out there, im around half way from sydney/around that east coast area, if anyone was coming down from that area id be more than happy to put you up for the night, so you cant split the journey into 2 500k trips... just a thought anyway

[wildgu6]

Well i havent responded to the thread until i knew exactly what was happening. Up until 2 weeks ago i was a definate 100%, and when i brought it up with the guys to make plans, they had formed a coup against me, They wanted to go to the Grampians again...Grrrrrrr
Problem for them with Loveday, Not happy with the facilities (Have a cry havent you heard of good old camping) anyway they also had concerns about camping by the river with a 3 yr old
(fair enough i guess ?).
Anyway then i thought we could stay at Barmera caravan park and still head of to Loveday each day, well that was booked out, so the only way it would work for me to meet you guys / gals and have a laugh and a few bevys and some wheelin would be to stay at Waikerie caravan park, about 40 mins from Loveday, all were happy with that so now we are doing just that and taking the jetski as well.
SO my plan is to 100% wil be attending Loveday at least 1 day over easter and possibly 2 days. And if they dont like those plans i will ark up and go to Loveday every bloody day.
This was a trip to meet and greet you guys from the start and im damn sure thats what i intend to do.

[Sir Roofy]

will be looking forward to meeting you mate yep its hard to do it at times with mates
to try and please every body is near on impossible,jane and i are going %100 weve been looking forward to this for 12months now

Hi All,

We put up this national meet up at Loveday for this Easter back over 12 months ago and I think a lot of people got excited and I understand things change as the year goes by so let's do another poll to see who actually is going to be there this Easter?

Do you 100% plan on going to Loveday this Easter?

Please answer above. I'll PM everyone who voted last time and please reply up here so we get true numbers this time.

We'll see how the numbers pan out over the next couple of weeks...



OK!

We have 14 forum members signed up for this trip. All good. Hope there may be a few more and hope all 14 are still on the list. If you have voted and are pulling out post up here or your counted in the numbers.

I have spent a bit of time on the Loveday website (Pretty average site) and spoken to Danny who has been there many times about the facilities for camping etc. The Website tells very little about the venue facilities to be honest but Danny filled me in.

As it stands the bulk of the camping is River bank camping on the Murray and looks awesome. No Power, Self sufficient, own toilet, no shower.

Alternatively, Danny tells me that there is some grassed powered sites close to the stadium track section that have ablution facilities a short walk away like a caravan park style. These places are limited and a couple of kms away from the river. The site is 8000acres. If we are keen for Power and ablutions then Bookings will be essential and likely well booked!

What are people expecting? given the distance between the Powered grass sites and the river bank we really want to be one in, all in so that our social time is well spent.

Given that we are looking to turn up with 14+ cars and families have there been any bookings made? do they know we are coming? What did we book for?

Lets get some details together folks or this will be messy.

I have tonight been to the committee meeting for my club (i am PRO) and listed Loveday for Easter as a Club Trip and may now be bringing a few other cars... We will see, not phased either way. I have listed it as River bank camping but can change that.

What is going on? what have we done other than look at our count down?

Cost is $60 per car and another $10 per night per car for River bank camping i think (crappy website)

Put your hand up, sing out, What are we doing guys?

BRING IT ON!

[growler2058]

Gday MR i have already booked the Old Shady campsite, the dates are on the original poll i think from memory

[growler2058]

Sorry now ive read your post properly ;-) Ive booked Old Shady campsite (we go to loveday every chance we get) around Easter last year, its a big site and we will all fit comfortably without having to "bunk up" Ive posted some vids and pics of the site i just need to find them for ya again. Tony (owner) knows were coming i just need to advise him numbers again. When i was there in January we had 30 odd vehicles booked so thats what ive told him. I will email him revised numbers. Ive got two other maybe three other vehicles coming Dont yell at me but theyre Yotas, wifeys prado mates 100 and possibly a lowlux something for us to practice recoveries on anyway:-) ill try find the post with the vids and put it in this thread

[growler2058]

The cost is $60 per vehicle for the first day, then $10 for each extra day.

[growler2058]

Heres the vid of "our" site guys, excuse the slightly drunken rambling and maybe a F bomb ;-)

[growler2058]

At this stage the site is booked from the 4th through to and incl 9th with the option to stay longer if anyone needs

[belzi82]

I am happy either way! Just do I need to bring a toilet???

[belzi82]

We will be heading up on the 6th so will either be there late that night or the 7th. Does the park close over night or can you enter at anytime??

[growler2058]

I am happy either way! Just do I need to bring a toilet???

Just a shovel Belz :-) the toilets are only about a 5min drive from the site for any shy members.

The park is open at night just not for wheeling, i think theyre on uhf 14 or we can organise a ch to listen out on. Phone service can be limited. If the Taverns shut ya just need to register the next day, tho being easter i rekon theyll be goin still

[AB]

Thanks for organising this Growlers, thanks for the bump too MR.

I'll be bringing my craptastic 2000 along so we can sit back for an hour and dig a gigantic hole or two so we have a facility available rather then the ladies going wandering in the middle of the night with a shovel.

I'll have a chat to Growlers soon and we'll put up a final post of exact directions, maps and confirmation of booking dates for us all.

[Maxhead]

Did someone say the $60 includes free beer at the tavern? lol

[taslucas]

[wildgu6]

G'day MR, living 2 hrs from Loveday we like growler get to frequent the park several times a year, facilities are about 5 mins from the river camp but when I say facilities they are adequate for bush camping but if I were to stay in a caravan park with the same facilities I would not be going back there so don't expect too much. Loveday is all about wheelin and the bush.Still a top place to visit. Here's a clip which can give you a bit of an idea of what Loveday is like.

[MudRunnerTD]

Yep Looking awesome

[belzi82]

So can I bag the best spot???

[AB]

Speaking with Growlers today and knowing the extra vehicles coming along who have not put a poll we estimate we should have around 20 cars.

That's a good number of vehicles and the extra people should make it around 25-35 people.

[AB]

So can I bag the best spot???

Which one is the best spot though Belzi...lol

[belzi82]

Can't wait only 44 days - it is going to fly.

AB how long do you estimate it is going to take for you to get up there??

Well ive upset the wife again, last mishap was the oil v lawn eff up. Now ive been making some chilli powder to spicen up a few Loveday meetup meals. Ive gone the milder Chocolate Habenero (around 400,000 schoville points). i was drying them in the oven (picked fresh off the bush today) and it was taking a lot longer than i thought, and subsequently there was an aroma of hot chilli in the air. Not tooo bad a few sneezes but nothing real bad. Then it went bad. I put em in wifes vitamizer and hit speed 3 they were a bit warm and not 100% dry but close, well when i took the lid off it was like a pepper spray bomb gone off in the kitchen the vapour of fire struck me first nearly knocked me over far out my throat and nose will never be the same they just instantly closed up then the burn started hahahhahaha my entire face is tingling and feeling like sun burn and the kitchen is off limits till the military get here with a decontamination kit! Oh well im always in the poop its just the depth that varies. (even my eyebrows are burning hahahahahahahhaa)

No westerners Rossco...They all pulled out...LMAO

I just spoke to Rohan earlier...He is bringing his spit and it can hold two decent roasts.

I'm thinking we could maybe use that for pork to get the nice crackling going and use the ovens for lamb/beef.

I spoke to Pauly a couple of weeks ago and he is just crazy busy at the moment unfortunately. I don't think he'll be coming to Loveday Dazz!

Good news on your mate coming though, It's getting close now so get organised everyone!

My car is pulled apart at the moment and cr@p everywhere...lol...Getting spotties hooked up, rear light hooked up, new thermostat and general maintenance....

just a thought nisspat, but wouldnt it be better for you to go the burley griffin way? it will save you about half an hour, you get to griffith, then head south to the sturt hwy from there? or even this way: http://maps.google.com.au/maps?saddr=Canberra,+Australian+Capital+Territory&daddr=-34.64352,148.0272479+to:Hay,+NSW&hl=en&sll=-27.331076,153.061047&sspn=1.044295,1.234589&geocode=FbCj5f0d7IXjCCkhkFywaU0WazFgVmmnbuoABQ%3BF cBh7_0db7fSCCnFxk54DcgZazFxHa1ytAkGEw%3BFf9t8f0dLi OiCCkR7xklyX7gajHgJESQtAkGBQ&oq=hay,+nsw&t=h&mra=ls&z=8&via=1

one other thing mate, and for anyone else coming that way, check the live traffic RTA website before making any any decisions on which roads to take. alotta roads out my way are closed and underwater atm. i know for a fact that on saturday the sturt hwy between narrandera and darlington point was closed. all the more reason to head down the burley griffin way. oh and make sure you take some snaps at darlington point, the whole east side of the town is pretty much underwater atm, its pretty amazing!!!

Danny has been speaking with the owner of Loveday who is at the Brisbane 4x4 show and then to his son who is onsite in Loveday, They are on Flood alert and there is a possibility that our proposed Campsite may be altered if the flood arrives as planned. Watch this space. Danny will post here when more is known.

Rest assured though we will be accommodated and our meetup will go ahead.
