I was going to head down on Tuesday, but I think I spent all my play money yesterday.  Maybe SWMBO will have a bit of her play money left over we can use.  She does have a birthday coming up, so what better excuse. ???

I'm going on Friday. Haven't been for a couple of years so I am looking forward to it. It's Mother's Day on the Sunday so maybe I can buy something for SWMBO :)

Just been going through the exhibitor list and planning what I want to see so I don't waste my time looking at caravans and winnebagos, I always seem to run out of time.  Particularly keen to look at the LED stuff, need a new camp table and chair, anything 4wd and of course the campertrailers.  Going out Thursday so only have to put up with the grey nomads.

Actually,  it goes more like this; curled up on the front seat of a 76 LB Lancer, 3 man tent, back of work van, big fat tent (kid #1), soft floor camper (kid #2), Jayco, soft floor camper, then who knows? Maybe hard floor, maybe Tvan, maybe just stretch the Cruiser and get a full sized van..

However, I also have an Oz tent and two swags. My son and I are going to the Cape shortly, his swag is just about stuffed and I'm over having the swag on the ground hence the stretcher :cheers:

Good luck Pete, please think seriously before shelling out those hard earned dollars, plenty of looking, looking.  You have my number if you want to discuss things
