G'day Rich,

Stayed at golden nugget caravan park.....and that's another story in itself.

Here goes....

Booked on Friday a drive thru site for Friday night. Said to the like I wanted grass not slab. He says no worries I'll just move a couple of bookings around and done.

We get there and the not so friendly lady tells me there are no drive thru sites left. When I tell her that we booked one she says they have lots of people come thru and coz we were only staying 1 night others who stay longer get preference.

When I ask her why take my booking then...... All of a sudden she finds me a drive thru site. I think she then felt guilty and offered me the 2 for 1 ticket to the show.

Won't be going back there again!!!

We combined a weekend away with leisurefest.

We headed there on Saturday morning. Seems as though the weather kept people away early but certainly by the time we left at midday the carpark was a lot busier.

I must say compared to Sandown it was a lot more leisurely (pardon the pun).

Picked up a bunk bed (spinifex) from anaconda for the kids for half price ($80) and a shovel/spade from 4x4 equip.

Overall enjoyed the morning....would love to go to one of these without kids where i could spend hours and hours.

Only negative...got back to the car/trailer to find some Knob had decided he wanted my anderson plug connection and took a knife to it.

Honestly, what is it with people???

Low Lifes!!!!!
heck that is low... sing out if you want one I have a few kicking around though they are APC ones so you would have to swap both ends over... I remove batteries from APC ups stacks at work so always got some kicking round in the shed
