So yea. Sorry guys. Was really looking forward to it.
As rli said, always another trip.
But if someone could take me off the poll to as I voted yes.
Wow... Dropping like flies.... Might be a wa meet the way it is going... Lol
Still 6 months so anything could happen for any of us..
Scotty

That's the tent me and Amy are gonna get. We were looking at the Oz Trail one which is 400. Did not see that was on saleQuote:

Scotty
Yeah good price and Ill also use it for our solo missions as sleeping in the gq is starting to ship me to tears...lolQuote:

Get the accessory to remove the centre pole so you can jiggy jig you lover boy!!
That was the point if getting the 6 person one so we can put a double bed in there bahahaha
Actually, you'll easily do the double bed in the back and throw your crap on either side of the pole. Happy days!Quote:

Will be talking to my boss once I'm back at work to get the time off can't wait
Will be looking forward to meeting you mate
should be a great trip
I cant wait, i have spent too much money getting ready for this trip and now my uni student casual worker is leaving to join the police if he gets accepted, bugger! But i have told my offsider that I am going anyway she will just have to carry on without me.
Still on hold for me, trialling a return to work program that failed after 2 days and has now been modified again with less hours / days. Hoping I can still make it though
lets hope you can make it Jason, more the merrier, i am thinking of after the flinders beeline to streaky bay for a couple of days before heading back across, i may even go to the old weather station on the bottom of the bight for a look and the caves if time permits instead of the straight run home.Quote:

I honestly haven't planned a thing. I need to start very soon, this will creep up very quickly blokes!!!

I thought I had done well planning the dates... LolQuote:

Can't wait though...
Scotty
I guess the time has to come soon as to decide the tracks we are going to take and stop overs etc so we have an idea on the fuel we will need the supplies we will need etc.
I am happy to help with this but all I have is maps I have never done it.... First hand knowledge is hard to beat here!!
Scotty
its looming up quickly now once it hits 100days its on the down hill slideQuote:

I reckon Dalhousie, so that way people can get there earlier if they want for relaxation and swimming etc... It is only 5 months away, I would assume most people would know if they are going or not by now...
Maybe reset the pole so we can vote again( is it possible for the pole to show results of who voted so we know for sure)
Scotty
Yes Dalhousie it is so anyone early can sit in the springs and relax.Quote:

Hopefully some banana benders will jump in and let you know which way they're travelling
Big "hopefully I can go" for me.
Haven't done any trips remotely this big before...
Will be watching to see how this progresses while I try to work things out...
