Hey Andy,
Good to see you've survived Tassie (so far), be good to catchup again. Sure you'll have some stories to tell and I'll bet you took the hard option at every opportunity.
Cheers

No itinerary. Just whatever happens
I'd be keen to catch up in the high country
Only booked my ferry ticket today as I spoke to a guy that said the ferry is booked out till mid April. But I was luckily able to get one of the last tickets for March cause I don't have a trailer

Hi Jack
Haven't completely survived Tassie yet. Still gonna catch up with Lucas before I go. Might not survive that one. Lol.
It's no fun if you don't take the hard option. Lol. No more big bog holes for me tho. Cost too much money. Just had to replace starter motor. Which I had just replaced after it failing on way home from the Cape York trip.
Will be good to catch up again whilst I'm in Vic. You should come up the High Country

I have finally made it to Victoria
Going to be in Vic until I leave for the Simpson desert crossing. Who is leaving from Victoria for the Simpson crossing. Is anyone still doing a double crossing. I'd be keen to do a double
Thinking of checking out the high country for a few weeks. The Great Ocean Rd etc. where else do u recommend
Might try and make it to the Toolangi trip next weekend and meet a few of you.

Well GU Camper has spent the last week or so in the Ballarat area, was very good to catch up again Andy.
Today he's starting his journey into the Otways and the Great Ocean Road - that will keep him busy for a while with so much to see.
While he was here we also met up with Cuppa and they compared Pods, talked travel, camping, Patrols etc.
Went out for a 4Wd with 2 Toymotas and a Navara on Saturday and found some decent tracks and lots of mud, a few recoveries were required. GU Camper displayed his skills in mud and hills, no challenge was shirked and the GU's came through with flying colours.

Enjoy the Otways & GOR Andy. Maybe a day or three in the Grampians might be worthwhile too?
When back up this way you are welcome to camp at our place if you want to.
cheers
