Intro from GaryV
« on: July 28, 2011, 10:01:58 PM »
G'day everone been a bit of a lurker on this forum thought I would introduce myself and the wife. I have been semi retired for a while and am now waiting for the better half to finish up work then hopefully get stuck into seeing what this country of ours has to offer.

Have just purchased a new Track Trailer Topaz the culmination of nearly thirty years of camping from tents to whatever. I think I have got it right  ;D. Just the right size for the two of us with plenty of storage that includes a firewood rack, just love my fires.

Picked the Topaz up last Friday and spent the weekend at Mudjimba straight from the dealer. What a nice spot. Been spending Christmas vacation with family at Mooloolaba, camping right on the ocean for  the last 40 years on and off and hardly knew Mudjimba existed jeez what a douche  ;D.
Cheers
Gary and Alana

G'day welcome to Myswag, might even see you out there one day

Thank you everyone. We live in such a big country with a relatively small population but it constantly amazes me who you bump into in your travels. I hope to use this forum to pick your brains especially your experiences in what places are of interest.

 :cheers:
