Hi from Pakenham, VIC!
« on: June 17, 2011, 11:11:26 PM »
Hi everyone,

Just registered up, been reading this site for quite a while. I'm 24 from Pakenham in S/E Melbourne. I'm a TQ cabinet maker who gave up doing kitchens and now work for a Recreational Vehicle Manufacturer. Much more diversity and free flowing work doing this stuff.

Ive got 3 kids with my Fiancee Janene, we all love getting out in the bush in my Maverick and camping. Will hopefully have a camper soon though for a bit more comfort.

Ive noticed that I cant upload an avatar picture yet, is it a post related thing?

Cheers,
John

Welcome John,

You need to make a certain number of posts before you can post a Avatar up. I think it maybe around 20.

Thank you all for the great welcome.

As for type of camper, something DIY or S/Hand. Would love a new one but just cant afford it in the next few years anyway. Will be an offroad tent style camper, ideally decent annex and awning to sleep 5

I do work locally, I am with Goldstream RV in Pakenham
