Catering for Trip
Their are 5 Batchelors 1 Spinster and three elderly couples LOL so 12 people
We are having a Camp Oven Roast on the Saturday night which I am bringing the Roasts and Andy is bringing the Vegies.
I suggest that everybody bring their own Food for the rest of the Meals as it would require a fair bit of organisation to purchase for everyone.
What does everybody think of this idea.
PS Can you bring your Camp Oven Snicko

Remember Rossco and I are taking the whole day off on Friday so we are going to leave at around 8am on Friday morning so we will be up there at noon.
I was planning on getting a good site, firewood and get the camp site ready, etc.
I thought everyone else was still meeting at 6pm at Mirimbah as normal and we'll meet you guys at the camp spot and we are all going to be on UHF 17???
Has something changed???
Also I thought Nisspat was going to go straight from his place possibly earlier and meet us up there during the day too?

15th November 2011, 07:40 PM
Ok, just spoke to Fletcha and he was supposed to take Friday off too but he can't (too busy at work) so he won't be finishing work until 6pm and will just meet us at the camp site at 8pm.

I have some slightly bad news...
Something extremely bad has happened to someone very close to me and I am trying to work through it with this person. On Friday I think I must be somewhere to help this person otherwise this could turn bad for him/her. I can't really say too much at the moment on a forum but I will tell the people in person whats going on up at the meet up...
Anyways at this stage I don't think I can head up in the morning. It will also depend on how Friday goes as that is an important day for this issue, but I would hope that I am able to head up in the afternoon of Friday or nighttime...Not sure but I am trying my best to resolve this problem and meet you all but this issue is one of those things that you would sell your house to help....Kind of hard to explain without getting in too deep...lol
Wish myself and my friend the best of luck and I hope to see you all up there!!!!!!!!!

The Camp area is KING HUT camping area not Craigs Hut
The 2nd one is close.
From Mirimbah take road up Mt Stirling to Telephone Box Junction and take the right branch there and follow the Circuit Road until you get to Speculation Road . Follow that until you come to a T Inersection and turn left. Camping area is about 500 metres from there
If you enter the Co ordinates at Merrijig the GPS should take you there. Mine does but I suppose it all depends on your GPS Map
This is a Map of the Area . Just above item 15 is the King Hut Camping area

Hey dudes - all packed up and ready to go, just need to stop on the way for food and beer! Can't wait. Just did a quick search on the net and it looks as if Mirimbah has fuel which is the last chance to fill up. Apparently it is open form Thursdays to Monday, so should be sweet. Anyways catch you all soon, and safe traveling.
