Who's Getting the Barge From River Heads to Fraser
« on: March 02, 2010, 01:39:20 PM »
Thought I would start a head count for those of us going on the barge over to Fraser from River Heads.  Will leave the southerners to their cold bacon & egg rolls and lukewarm coffee, we might just have some yummier delicacies.  :cheers:

We were very logical in our approach; with the tide being high we should be able to get over to Eurong and wait a little while with you lot before the tide goes out enough to head north. ;)

Yeah I had that same thought when I read your departure time.  But for us living that bit closer I'd rather be sitting on the beach at Eurong eating chocolate brownies or catching up on my knitting than tapping my foot waiting around at home.

Bloody tides.  >:(

Not sure if I have mentioned it but for those going on the barge from River Heads don't get too excited about getting first in the line to get on the barge.

The way it works is that you have to back/rverse onto the barge and those first in line will be at the back of the barge.  So then those that backed/reversed on last will be first to drive off.

Get it!?!?!

Don't worry Les, there's sure to be a backpacker reverse his troopie over the edge of the ramp.  That'll take the pressure off!  Better get some backing practice on that acreage of yours.  :cheers:
