New Gal
« on: October 11, 2012, 03:31:58 PM »
Hi. A couple of tent campers from way back here, who in recent years have hired a Jimboomba CT as well as Jayco Flamingo Outback and Discovery Pop Top. Trying to make up our minds now what to buy. Whilst I loved the Discovery Pop Top, its out of my budget at this point in time.
But ..... am rather keen on a Lifestyle 360, hope to buy next June. (champing at the bit actually!) In the meantime am loving this site and all the info. So thanks to everyone for the very informative posts.  :cup:

My hubby is an electrical Engineer by trade but works in ICT. I'm a retired Office Manager, and also an Artist. We have a four legged travelling companion (border collie) who loves the beach and playing with his soccer ball.

Welcome aboard to the mad house :)

Seems the border collie is a popular travelling companion.

Hey BernieS,

Welcome to Australia's premier camping and 4x4 forum.  We are a friendly bunch (most days) so don't hesitate to ask those questions that you feel you must. 

Good to see the BrisVegas numbers jumping up once more!  I'm just a wee bit south ... but not much too much south ...   ;D

Welcome to Myswag, keep your eye on the classisfieds, there is a bargain to be found now and then and you might get a camper before you know it for a great price

Thanks very kindly Chilli, Kit_e & LB.  There are so many interesting topics on this site that its gonna take me years to read them all.
LB I'll pass that on to him. In the meantime am hoping his workload lets up soon, he really needs a good holiday. (like a nice long trip in a camper trailer ;D)
