A bit far from NSW but headed down to Bridgetown for the annual weekend blues festival. Staying in the CT about 2 km's out of town on a friends property. The walk back should be interesting  :cheers:

Not going myself, but was there 3 weeks back, Tarana, on the Fish river, two hours up the rd, go thru Tarana, get on the Tarana Oconnell rd and you'l find the camp ground on your right hand side, free camp, long drop loo. River at your doorstep.  ;D
Oh, forgot to mention, the Trout are on to, we got 25 up there.

We finally got the Swan back yesterday and were all set to head down to Myalup Beach tomorrow arvo.  But then The Driver got called back to work and is back under the ocean for an unknown length of time... sigh...

I might sleep in the camper in the driveway just so I feel like I am camping... :'(
