Title: Hi there from Jervis Bay NSW
Post by: michael56 on January 12, 2015, 06:30:08 PM
Hi there everybody,
Had my off road camper for a while a Bushranger Country (hard floor) which I have been towing with a Nissan x-trail. I have just acquired a Landrover Defender Wagon TD5 which with some  :-* tender love should provide me with a more than adequate tow vehicle. My interest is not in particularly heavy 4 wheel driving but just being able to get myself out of trouble when I find myself in tight situations heading to likely fishing spots on the Murray and up in the Snowy. I  hope to meet up with people of like interests as time passes.
Cheers
Michael

Wow just around the corner or more correctly just across the creek  ;D Certainly would love to catchup. My exact location is actually Callala Beach in the Bay. I have been retired for a few months now and am very much looking forward to getting away.
Cheers

Well I am not Irish but I am left handed and if it is possible to do something the opposite way then I can usually manage that. My wife just rolls her eyes and says Your at it again darling ??????. Maybe beer would help.  :cheers:

Welcome Michael
Nothing unusual to see a Landrover belly up out in the bush. Suggest you put a treg hitch on so the camper stays upright. LOL

Tried to get the picture right turned it round but it still saves upside down. Treg hitch didn't work. Must be a way to fix it any suggestions????

Welcome and enjoy - by the way, Pic being upside down is irreversible - caused by Landroveritis and makes sure your oil stays in the sump.
Great partof the country you are in,
Cheers
