Already started saving for this trip, fingers crossed that I don't have to touch it between now and then.....

Might need clarification on suitability of the Simpson/caravan combo mate. Can anyone advise?

EASY mate, what you talking about!!!

Hahha, we're thinking if we're going that way we might as well take the van and go to Uluru and Alice and then leave the van at Oodnadata or somewhere similar then once we cross come back on the highway.

Just a thought at this stage but more I think about this we might just tent the whole way....yet to think about it properly...

Wouldn't you use the "Great Central road" and go via Laverton etc

Ok, 27 of June to the 14 of july is school holidays in qld.. I think is a week later.
Queens birthday is the 10th of June so if we go the first 2 weeks of June everyone gets a free day...

So how does the 31st of May to the 14 of June? Gives a Sunday to unwind and unpack.

I am easy with whatever dates

[Wetty]

I am more than keen on doing this, it sounds like it will be loads of fun. . . . . be a big trip from over this side of the country though! I will have to consult the War Office to see if she wants to be in or not, failing that I will come by myself if the planets line up!

G'day Andrew,

The great thing about this trip is it a Long way for everyone. Growler and Westy are the closest by a long shot. This will be a great trip for everyone and a load of fun for sure mate.

See you in the Middle in 2014.

Hey Kallen,

I am a little confused with your dates there? I think we are chasing the School Holidays to be doing this trip not avoiding the clash?

I think that most with kids will be tied to the Holidays mate. so thats how we must roll.

My work is governed by the Financial Year and June is PayDay month for me so i will be flat out trying to finish the Year strongly. I just cant take June off.


Here are the dates for all states

Australian Public Holidays Australian Time Zones Australian School Term Dates 2014

Daylight Savings Dates

Proposed Dates Term 2 - Holidays - Term 3

ACT----------------------04 Jul <=> 21 Jul
Victoria---------------- 27 Jun <=> 14 Jul
New South Wales----27 Jun <=> 14 Jul
Queensland-----------27 Jun <=> 14 Jul
Western Australia---04 Jul <=> 21 Jul
South Australia------04 Jul <=> 21 Jul
Tasmania no information available
Northern Territory--20 Jun <=> 21 Jul

Given the dates above then i would think someone will be starting early or others will be finishing late??

SA, WA and the Bloody ACT! start a week later than Vic NSW and QLD. Do we ask everyone from there to come a week before the holidays or do Vic NSW and QLD hang around home a week.??

Interesting. Really depends on where all the numbers are coming from?

I'd be happy to start Late for Vic but i am open to discussion?
