hey Brett, my neighbours went up late October and the said gate was locked, but people had driven around the gate and still set up in the camping areas.

We got a warning yesterday to expect a year's worth of rain over the weekend so better do it before then! Might be able to convince Nay-DMAX to take the dogs for a run after work.

Was back at work yesterday, though not doing much....

BTW, a year's worth of rain for us is 16mm, get it right won't ya :D That's enough to have to lock the hubs on the Rodeo to get the water tank out of the paddock! Should be enough to bring along my current crop of bindi's... bastards...

I wonder why Bretto? Do they close it from time to time for rejuvenation or some other issue? Disappointing as that's your yearly spot :-[

I think they got some FW campers in there that destroyed a lot of the tracks BD.

If it turns out to be closed Brett I could show you where we go near Cobram if you want.

If that's the case that is just real poor stuff and unfortunately a common occurrence.

Yes Johnny FW campers tear the place up there were a few bog holes on the track in and others were making new tracks around them
