TD and BA. I have the friday off. Let me know what time you can leave.
I can leave pretty much anytime after I drop the kids off to school. Providing I'm ready myself. So I can get up early than AB to secure the Water gauge site. Some numbers on who is going would be easier to see how much of the area we need to secure. Thats if AB doesn't mind me getting there before him...
Easiest maybe to chuck a thanks in here. This will tell me and everyone else who is a definite.
I will be just going for Friday night, and have to leave at probably 1pm the latest, as I have a shindig on Saturday night I have to go to. Unless one of their kids get sick like I have mentioned. Lets hope. Then I'll stay the extra night. Will have to work out a way to mark the spots so other campers don't take them.
At this stage you have 17 spaces to cover plus any one else who shows up
water gauge might be a bit tight
I'm in for number 3

When I was there just this weekend gone, I noticed the was a sign for the Toyota 4x4 club and they had the massive clearing right at the start of the camp ground. You could fit 100 cars there. But it was fenced off and somehow they were all behind the fence with their cars too. That would be a sure thing that spot. From there on there is tonnes of camp sites but like Water Gauge they are all spread out. Maybe the DSE or Parks Victoria let them in but as we are technically not a club, don't know. Would be a great spot to get all the 4by's lined up for a photo shoot...
Funny thing was there was only about 5 cars there. Yotas must be real popular :hpfredgeorge1:
I'm in for Friday night and 4wd'ing on Saturday.
Done...I probably wont get any wheelin' in too if that makes you feel any better...
I have been umm-ing and arh-ing about this. the GQ is out of action at the moment and has bits hanging off it all over the joint ;) Thats what happens ;)
Am seriously thinking of heading out for this in the GUIV. My wife is at school all day Saturday so she is out and for that i think the 18month old girl will stay home with her and the Camper Trailer can stay home too ;)
Am pretty keen to get this happening with my 7year old fella in the OzTent. Count me in.
No Extreme driving the the GUIV though damn it.
You know I am in for Friday /Saturday with my daughter.
I will keep her home from school so we can leave after I have packed??
So whats the body count so for.
Threedogs and BBF, Gee I have enough cooking gear to o nine easy, just everyone needs their one plates knives forks ETC
I'm ex TLCCV i'll talk to my bro Dont worry about tlccv I've got them covered
Dont think Mego will be coming as would be working, not sure about Boots Hope he can Make It
Irish is confirmed or he gets a punch in the neck...
Further more I have a 20ft Tarp We put up for putting all kitchen prep tables ,pantries etc,.Really need a member to come over So I can show what I have thats available
Mudski if you have a chance drop over, This could be a great set up for a camp, need some chainsaws, not me, But with help I can have all cooking stuff a ns shelter down pat just need someone to come over ans confirm, I even have all camp lighting the works, Your call or I'll just bring knife fork and a torch. I like to be organised ans its the 5th and a see nothing so far
BA,
It's a good thing your daughter can drive, because I fear you may be suffering from the effects of a punch in the neck after Friday night. :-p
Irish. Your a confirmed your coming?
I should have some time on Wednesday??? Since I am only there for a night I was just going to swag it and bring my hotplate and throw a few snags on and something easy for brekkie. I'm a real plain jane when it comes to feed time when camping for a single night. The less I have to take the less I need to clean up. But should be o.k for wednesday, during the day...
Yes mate, confirmed about three pages back :-)
I'm good for Friday night and at least a half day Saturday.
I won't be doing anything mental as my baby has a few niggling issues at the moment. I'm in for the meetup more than anything*
*and to punch BA in the neck...
Forget it Mudski unless you just want to come over for a quick ale'
I was going to bring some community items like camp ovens etc, my mate and I will bring our Tarp.
which is great for preping food under, and of course will bring some toys to showcase what i can,
make. so the way I figure it everyone has there one eating gear I just need to bring some camp overs and beef stock
and Plenty of camp lighting dimmers and Batteries, If you need onything else at all please let me know as early as poss
Toyota will be on 15 , so 26 is normally clear. is this place suitable just to get camper in to home base as only staying the one night.
Sorry if I sound like a lazy feck, but this is my first ever meet with any sort of group. So I just thought I would bring my own stuff since I'm only there for a night. I don't really know what to do... By the sounds of it Saturday night will be the feast night anyhow as Friday night people will still be turning up.
As for the people who will be turning up in the dark, just look for the city lights in the bush from threedogs' setup :) I have my two light sticks I made aswell.
The pic doesn't do it justice. Theres are more than enough light there, even with jut one of them on... The centre one is diffused and the side one not.
Fletch I'll PM you later some your cooking gear is covered, plmy gear is to be treated with kid gloves. I have the Doulble spud steamer if some one is getting some bags of chat, or cut larger
ones. So two camp ovens the steamer smaller pot for gravey and peas.Could do this so its one sitting, Stuff it Ill bing most of my stuff what not used can stay under camper, now You need mint sauce, mushroom and garlic gravey, bags of peas ans corn frozen Those frozen galice bread slices re the best ever, salt, pepper, fighting sticks. buter not margerine, I'll bring Bedourie for roast spuds, and half a pumpkin, TWO litres of beef stock , forgotten most but this is typical of one of my camps
Looks goods Mudski bring a ship load of lights and batteries, plus your set up should be awesome, Just bring your Eating gear plate knives forks etc, I'll have ovens and other to feed the Titanic,
Normally DoOk with heaps onboard, Mudski just check What I use and you'll be spell bound looking forward. more than likely be leaving early friday morning
Geez, all the talk about utensils, posts, pans, ovens, etc, etc.
This is what I usually bring first as it gets a work out, the rest doesn't get used too much

This would have been an excellent opportunity to catch up and try out the new toy.
Unfortunately the youngest is getting married that Saturday and as I'll have to make a speech I'm sure it will be noticed if I don't turn up.
Enjoy the meet.
Cheers
Meh! I'll bring the camera and sat dish and we can do a live feed to the reception :) Hit two birds with one stone EH!
I'm a bit more, erm posh when it comes to beer. Plus I love a good drop of red too...
Yo 3dogs bit confused, so you staying for the 2 nights now? That's when the feast is planned for. But maybe we'd be better off doing it Friday night as sounds like there will be more people (plus master chef 3dogs)
