Steve, pretty sure it might only be "free" to use as a bonus for a group booking all 4 cabins, and only for use of those staying in the cabins , as going by the web, its $5 to use it if you are in a cabin or camping.

Im still taking a camp cooker for saturday lunch anyway.
Silver is all packed bar esky. All keen here. See you at the Servo near Torque on Johnson Rd before 6:30 :-)
I think we'll be ok to use the facilities. Dean was keen to let me know what was available. The gas bottle is packed!
I just wanted to add a suggestion last minute reminder list, if you dont have any of it ,don't worry, but if you do have it, it would be great if you remember to bring it.
Camera !
Battery charger (long exposure shots can eat battery power)
All lenses and accessories, (feel free to bring all your DSLR related gear) including tripod etc
Owners manual (unless you know how to change settings in Manual Mode already)
PC/USB cable (to get pics off ya camera)
Laptop/USB Stick
Torch/light
Tripod
Charge all batteries
Again, don't stress if you don't have "everything", we will still have fun !
Frenzy........ the 30D/17-85mm is cleaned, charged, packed and ready to go mate, so don't let me forget to give it to ya at the servo in the morning ! :bananadancing:
Steve, if you are still up, or if I am still up if you reply, would a hand held 100w spotty help out at all with any of the shots the group might take - its a focusable light force
Yes Rick, i have a hendheld spot, but i think its only 50W and tethered to the car, we may get better distance with yours to light distance trees etc, so if you can fit it please bring ! :clapping:
The other lights i wanted people to bring are just torch or worklight type, but the spot can be used to light trees etc like this shot....

Great weekend and thanks to all - different to our usual trips (no 4wd'ing at all - dirt/mud tracks and heaps of river crossings but didn't even lock the hubs in), but bloody relaxing and the kids had a dead set ball ...
That said, Muds made me pinky promise that the next trip is camping and 4wd'ing - she's a thrill seeker no doubt!!!
I am on her side on that one
Mine is already clean, I needed to wash myself and found an opportunity to clean the car also lol. I also washed one of those, one of those, one of those... I can't say it. It was a manly one though, an Echo lol
I am on muds side also boys.
Thanks O4OFF Steve for bringing along the photographic toys and for being so patient in sharing your expertise.
A special thanks for bringing along all the technology, ranging from smoke machines to coloured LED spotlights, and laptops, and not forgetting the mega lighter big enough for Puff the Magic Dragon to scorch Pirate ships when Puff has a sore throat!!
Congrats to Bec for Quoitting the flashing cup!
Loverly Wife (The Cook on here) is busy loading photos onto the 'puter, so there may be some piccies from her tonight :-)
