I know where there is one for sale Julian.  !!!!!!!! ;D


We don't buy each other any gifts.....which means more money for camping......and beer. !!!

We could swap gifts, just put a bow on the KK and park it under a pine tree from me. I'll bring your present in my fridge every single time I camp with you. I promise that you will never need to leave your chair again. We have talked about yours.

We bought ourselves a Weber Q100, tonight the missus cooked an awesome steak as per the Weber dudes instructions on Pat Callinan's show.
I missed the episode again but heard it was good, how did the steak come out?

how did the steak come out?

It was magnificent, seared to perfection on the outside, an even red all the way through, with just enough juice to mop up with chips :)

Oh and the missus cooked it and she is a vego  ;D

Since selling my homemade wooden boat (like the idiot that I'am) Morag and I have always wanted either a canoe or Kayaks for fishing the rivers that we frequent.
So after seeing a couple of these in use at the last FNQ camping trip we decided to each get one.

It is the Eco Mahi Recreational Kayak
Of course thier being $200 off at BCF didnt hurt none either.
We also bought the seats and paddles to go with them.
Now we will get each other and the boys some stocking stuffers and it will be done for this year.
Oh and hopefully I will still be building a canoe during this wet season as well.
Merry Christmas everyone...
Bill and Morag


Nice choice Bill, thats exactly the same as mine.  Did you get to go for a paddle in one while up at woodleigh last weekend???  Trish has one identical to yours as well.   ;D ;D ;D ;D Cheers Rellbell

No did not go for a paddle.
Seen everyone playing with thiers and just went to BCF to "have a look at them"
When we seen they were $200.00 off we made a snap decision...

Mystq mate it is called a kamado oven but the brand is kamado joe. it is made by very thick ceramic and it's weight was about 80kg. it uses charcoal and you can add wood chips for extra smoke. So far it is amazing, have roasted turkey,s seared steak at 500 to 600 degrees, yet to cook low and slow but they can hold a low constant temp for close to 24hrs if need be. it is a great alternative to a pizza oven that can do so much more.

I'm getting everyone I know one of these:



They are only $20 on the newsstand and the perfect gift for anyone who digs camper trailers!

Also, I hear the guy who put it together is alright...

If you feel completely comfortable owning that vehicle and can't find a jack big enough, I've heard besser bricks are really good to stack under a jack to allow you to lift the vehicle.

Note: Besser bricks will only work under this vehicle, Please don't use besser bricks under any other vehicle. ;D ;D ;D ;D
