Excellent news mate!! And thanks for the kind words, but proof will be on the day so to speak! I'm doing what I can though ...

Counting the 'definite maybes' ( ahem, no pressure!! lol), we're up to approx 80 people and 27 vehicles!!
TOP EFFORT EVERYONE - KEEP EM COMING!!!!!!
Sorry I can't make it now.................................I'm still lost..............................not sure if I will get my bearings correct before the 1st of October *L*
Don't tell me you're knocking back all those bourbons you've been promised!!LOL
Did someone say bourbon????? *L*
Putting in for my holidays on Friday, should be ok, have already spoken 2 my manager but just have not handed in my holiday leave form. Got 2 be quick at my place of employment, They can't have more than one person take holidays at the same time ( within the same job description ).
Just sussing out the cost 2 hire a camping trailer, might be better 2 hire one than just taking the tent.
Might be a silly question but I assume camping trailers are ok at the camp site considering it is so big?????
First post updated also, however, could I ask that eveyone who's going/pretty sure they're going, shoot me an email so I can coordinate this with you via your address - many people who are dedicated members etc don't get on here a lot, so figured email would be the best method of update. Let me know your forum alias and real first name so I can add it to the list.
My email address:
bigrig@nissanpatrol.com.au
Fairly easy to remember!! lol
Howdy
below hopefully give a better idea of the size of the area we have allocated to us. On the second photo, I have cut and copied the owners house (large 4 bedroom Queenslander) onto the area to give some perspective of size - fits their house in on the flat section 27 times with plenty of space in between ... bloody big area!!!! There is also a section surrounded by yellow outline that is the part leading down to the creek that you can see on the vide - no good for caravans and campers, but definitely able to get tent sites down there also ...
Hope this helps ...

We are in for sure, (2 adults and 4 kids) u have picked an awesome spot Scotty, also we are available to go up on the Sunday to give u a hand to set up. We won't have much room in the car for extras but have plenty of child labour at your disposal lol.
Hi big fella !
I just wondered if you could please put the date/s for this trip on the first page, and the park address right at the top (in red or something), make it much easier to see at a "glance" if its something people can attend or not ?
:cheers:
Holidays approved..... I think.......not that we actually get told if they are approved, I just take them anyway *L*
have booked from the 28th of Sep till the 9th of Oct,
now I just need 2 save a sh!t load of money 2 pay for my thirsty 4.2.
We give you a quick ring during the week
I've updated the first post with this information also as 'UPDATE NUMBER 4'
Ok - as per below please start to make contact with the retreat and pay deposits/full amounts etc. Details as follows:
Phone 1300733901
OR
email admin@ncbr.com.au
OR
go to the website booking page http://www.ncbr.com.au/pricingpage.php
In all cases you MUST nominate you are part of Nissanpatrol.com.au otherwise their system will place you in a different area.
You will receive an individual invoice as per the one attached below in this post. Deposits are to be made by the 20th February if possible, with all outstanding monies to be paid by June 30th (hopefully more than enough time for everyone). There'll obviously be those joining in post the 20th February, so obviously just pay as you confirm you are going - I have just informed them they'd start receiving payments, and essentially trying to put a date on it to make sure everyone gives it some attention (and they don't think I'm the only one coming!!! lmao).
Answer ur phone!!!
Change my Poll 2..... YES Count me in.......... Just booked online, waiting 2 hear back from them so i can pay deposit :):):)
Deposit paid the other day :) bring on QLD...........should i bring my 4b or a boat?????????

Im out now guys.....from definate maybe to most likely not:-( just couldnt resist cheap flights to Thailand for a month in July:-). So unless the 1 in a gazillion chance of a lotto win comes up im afraid ill have to read all about it on the forum. Maybe next year
Bump for new members and a reminder for others.
Been getting a heap of emails come through and many have started organising or have paid for the deposit, which is awesome. The first post on the thread has all the details to date.
Got the pricing back for Sumo suits also - yep, we'll be doing that!!! lmao - should be a giggle!!!
Remember, the more people the merrier, so don't forget to tell family and friends if you wish. Confirmed is around 23 vehicles and about 55-60 people, so it's going to be big, but we would love more (especially with 4WDTV covering it also).
I'll update the first post with a bit more info this week also. The idea (for example) of getting a discount from the pub in Woodford for our beer, wine, spirits, etc as a group (buy individually but have a discount card or something for that week) was a bloody good one, so I'm hitting them up early this week - same for the "organic" butcher in town (my mate lives in Woodford and that butcher is dead set one of the best I've ever been to - good pricing, and awesome produce).
Get on board people!!!! It's gunna be HUUUUUUGGGGGGE!!!!!
i reckon there is a gooooood chance i will be able to do the drive over to this one.... the dates look pretty good.... cant commit right this second though and i really have to concentrate on my simpson crossing in july..... would it be too late if my final decision was made in say August????
Scotty
No drama at all mate - fully appreciate we'll have people signing up all the way through to it (and probably some showing up out of the blue!!), so no worries at all on working it out later. Obviously trying to get everyone sorted early in the piece, but so long as the greater majority who are definites have sorted their deposits etc, then it's all locked in either way.
Top stuff mate and certainly hope you can make it!!!
Did you put me on the defo going list Scotty? cause i am you know, oh yeah, you just try and stop me. I will get on and pay the deposit pronto matey.:thumbup:
