Free Accommodation
« on: September 28, 2011, 08:13:50 AM »
Gday Guys, as some of you know im from Gilgandra which is on the Newell Hwy. As this is a major route, we often see a lot of CTs pass through.

Thus im offering MySwag Members free Accommodation. Power and water is available here. As well as a shower and toilet. Kids are more than welcome as we have 3 of our own. I'm more than happy to also store your CT here while you go and do things and also happy for more than 1 night. (however i think several nights might warrant a gold coin donation)

I'm located on the edge of town (Castlereagh Hwy Nth side) Approx 3km from main Street.

Pets Are also welcome on a leash.......be advised we also have a large dog and chooks.

Feel free to PM me or call/text 0418 279 256.

Depending how much room you require, i can handle 4-6 CTs,

Cheers

That's nothing short of astounding!!
I'm sure a few kind souls will be dropping by as Gil is one of those places on the way to everywhere.
Would love to drop by one day if on the way through & have a coldie.
Cheers for your generous hospitality.

Hi,
I think that is a terrific offer for fellow Swaggers  :cup:


Now maybe will see a few similar offers in the far north areas where the country is diverse and sparsely populated where it would be handy to drop off the camper (boat) while the owner goes for a drive in the general area.

I for one, do thank you for your terrific idea  ;D

I would be happy to offer some space in my backyard to set up your CT as well ...we are 1/2 hr from Warwick QLD  (about 5 mins from Killarney and 15 mins form Queen Mary Falls)(Google "Tannymorel")  There is (clean) bore water and power, and plenty of room for a couple of CTs. Well behaved pets are welcome ( I have 2 dogs and 9 chooks and 3 kids) There is plenty to see in the area if anyone is interested.

I think a seperate thread for this is a great idea.

Cheers Chippy :D

Hey Campingwithkids and Watto, you are both legends and your offers of hospitality are far more than than generous. I can't get away again untill autumn next year but if your offer is still available i will definately look you both up and happy to supply the refreshments  :cheers:
Perhaps a seperate section for this kind of thing could be set up on My Swag, i'm sure it would receive a lot of usage and have many benefits as well as being a chance to meet some of our fellow My Swagers

Cheers

Having experienced the heartless side of humanity in the past, it is uplifting to see people making this sort of offer for their fellow man (or Woman).

Like others have said, it is great to see we can still do things like this. It is an outstanding gesture which I am sure would be reciprocated across our great land.

If this gets stickied, may be a members only thread and not visible to visitors would be a wise choice.
I am sure everyone here will do right by CWK and others offering their hospitaltiy.
