Greetings all
All going to plan we will officially qualify for membership on Monday when we collect our brand new Trackabout Safari Extenda from Rob, Kym & Dave. They have been fantastic to deal with and very open to answering all of the nOOb questions I had.
Lynda and I are just venturing into camping - although by definition with the Trackie and some additions it will be glamping. Which suit us just fine!
The tug is a 2012 Amarok Ultimate. I've had this for 6 months and have scheduled the mods with Westside 4x4 here in Brisbane.
Lynda and I work together at a Not-for-profit social welfare agency based in Manly (Qld). We work across Child Protection, counselling and therapy, supported accomodation and child care. Amazing place to work. Full of outstanding staff who give unreservedly to those experiencing brokeness and disadvantage
The plan is for regular weekends and then a week or two throughout the year.
I've followed lots of the trip reports - so I think we are ok for destinations until around 2020. Water will be a feature in most of the camping adventures.
That's us - pretty plain and straight forward people. Our kids are now 20, 18 and 16 and we figure if they won't fly the coup, we might as well as give it a go.
Neither of us are brave enough to enter the electrical section and I've posted a google image of 6b&s on the fridge in case either of us comes across some - so I guess that makes us normal.
We look forward to getting out there and meeting some of you along the way
Cheers
Dash (Darren)
