At this stage it will be myself and son,  with the distinct possibility of SWMBO and the 2 daughters (and if that's the case then the real Ralph Edward, the German Stupid [Shepherd] will make an appearance as well.  Fri - Sun arvo.

Geez I hope hope the camper arrives before then!!!!!

Speewa,

After I swore blind to SWMBO that I was never going to use the tent again unless I could sleep at least a metre from the floor on an inner spring mattress (whilst her idea of roughing it is a night at the Hyatt),  I just bought a shower tent -- so bugger it, camper or not I'll be there  ---  I just may have to sleep vertically!
SWMBO made me do it (whatever it was I did)!

Any chance the camp ground could be underwater?

If I can work out how to stay in the s$!t with SWMBO I may just be camping permanently. Couldn't be all that bad could it?

Good to keep distance between family and home...  At least enough distance that they ring before coming to visit! 

As for moving Melbourne to WA....  How about you just take some bits and the rest stays where it is.   Sports, Restaurants, etc stay.  WA can have the pipeline, the desal plant and all the bills that go with both of them, and, bugger it, you can have parliament house too!

At this stage, count SWMBO and I in for this, and maybe another couple.
Could we maybe update the first post to show the exact details of where we are going etc and maybe an update of who is going.

Cheers,

Cam

Miniac Looking foward to meeting you . Now Greens rd camp site is 7km out or Rushworth via Rushworth / Nagambie rd  Near ths Balaclava Hill mine at Whroo  Good drit rd for the last few km .
Camp is 400m off the road signed  ( or it was a few weeks ago )  or Camps 5 site 258 . If you come in from Nagambie then its a lot more dirt in through Bailston  ( not a town an area ) .
As far as whos coming post 14 page 2  :cheers:

Yahoo, the camper arrives next week - I don't have to sleep vertically!

Hey Speewa,  I saw you today (can't be too many white Paj's around with Speewa scratched into the middle rear mud flap).  If I had have been able to catch ya I would have said gidday!
