I will try to make it George.
A bbq should be good.
Has someone tried to contact The West or any magazines like 4WD Action or CT Australia?
Good for promotion and showing how to help others.

Ok BBQ at my place in Kingsley

Ive tried the camper trailer mags and it seems like if you dont advertise with them they dont want to know about it CTA are interested in it, we have tried some of the others and they dont even reply.

I sent an email to Today tonight, as well as a couple of friends over at channel ten.
Hopefully Someone will phone you, it'd be a nice change to hear something nice on the news for once  ;D

Hi Everyone,

Just got a couple more donations, the tally is now up to $785 so great going. (nearly 40% wilsurf)

We are going to organise the BBQ at our place, if you are interested in coming get in touch with us for more details.

Looking so good George! We are getting very excited!

I can't believe the tally you have! We have been trying magazines too and no one seems to reply. But we won't give up.  People need to hear how great you have been and the generosity and hard work you's have gone too to help us! My wife wishes she could thank you in person but she is letting me go off for a weekend while she watches the little one.

I will send you an email tonight with my travel details.

Luke

I can't say thank you enough to everyone!
Looking forward to getting my follow me camper!

Hi luke, Great outcome all around.

Maybe you should change the Confused camper bit in your profile?  ;D
Something along the lines of "follow me in my follow me"?

Lol

Thanks. I changed the bottom saying but didn't realise it said that on the side... I'm very new at this and not very good with computers so it takes me a bit to get things done on here...cheers for letting me know.

Luke
Looking forward to getting my follow me camper!

Good luck Luke to you and Melissa and family, glad this has worked out for you. Enjoy your times together in the new camper. Ours will be some time off before we can do a thing with it. We are still waiting to hear something, if anything at all. Still we plan on finishing it when we get back from Tasmania. Our little grand daughter keeps asking us when is it going to be ready and is it really ours! We just wait and see. Rob up the road the original owner is going to help us finish it off and sort some of the legal stuff out. We have heard nothing else now, so gather it is all wound up. I just reckon the Willis's will get it one way or another sometime. You cannot go through life hurting people and not paying for it somehow.
I have heard a bit about Sue and she sounds like a very untrustworthy person, just wish we knew sooner. A bad character indeed!

Just a thought on trying to get the story out there I know not all Myswaggers are on Facebook but maybe if someone put a story on the myswag fb page then those who are on there can share it and their friends share it etc, not sure if that type of thing is ok on the fb page but just a suggestion, great to hear Aussie spirit still alive and well.

I think George did this, not sure if it was on Myswag fb or Followmecampers fb.

Sorry haven't updated for a while, its being very hectic.


We have completed Luke & Melissa's camper and are now waiting for next weekend when Luke is in Perth to meet us and his camper.

We have a balance now if $1084 towards the cost of transport - so well done everyone that will be a great help.

I will add some photos of the completed camper on Tuesday so you can see what it looks like now finished.


The BBQ mentioned earlier on this thread is happening next Saturday night (2.2.13) from 5.30pm and we would love for as many myswag members to attend as can make it.

I have also put this invitation on the Follow Me Campers facebook page http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Follow-Me-Campers/287775964594569 so get on there and like it so we can get a good group together and even though it appears we will have to write our own articles for Camper Trailer Australia and Western 4WDriver we will have some good photos to go with the story.

Send us a PM or contact George on 0403574222 if you are able to make it.
