They could just build it on a base of big wood and let it burn down as well as up. They will figure it out mate. Bring what you have and we will. Be warm tomorrow night ;)Quote:

Probably got half a million pics of Winnie throwing up then passing out......... Or maybe they're on busy making snow angels
Can't load pics not enough reception. 12 hours driving to camp awesome trip so far. Woke up and Dazz not here?
Plenty of action so far and today hasn't even begun!
Stay tuned.
Ok,
Only just got in the door as I've bailed early for a family commitment.
What a top couple of days. Good drives, a couple of recoveries, snow, some rain, wind, broken bits on cars, bush mechanics, campfire, lots of chainsawing to clear tracks, beer and great company.
Thanks to all involved for coordinating a great meet-up. Looking forward to October already.
Oh and by the way, GQ's ruled!
