Hi Myswaggers from newbie swagger
« on: July 21, 2013, 08:26:30 AM »
Hi Fellow campers.
We just got home from a quick reccie trip to Cairns.
Went as high as Cooketown but couldnt go any further as we were in a hired camper van.
We are going to the Tip in june next year  so when we got back we ordered a Jayco Swan.
Gets delivered mid Sept.
This site looks awesome.
Will post some of the mods l am going to do to it in the future.
I have just under a year to get all the bugs ironed out.
Look forward to reading your adventures too.
Regs Jason.
