Thanks Russell. Shower was good. Wish I was there still, though I do need to catch up on some sleep.

Snow great pics.  :cup:  Just wondering what happened to the rest of the pics Mrs Snow took of Brett on the beach.  It must have been a difficult choice picking just one.

Bullfrog, your pic of the koala is a Photo of the Month winner for sure.  :cup:

How did you get NK to sit there long enough to get a photo?  ???  ;D

I forgot to thank all those that waited up for us to arrive on Friday night/Monday morning,  I know it was a huge effort having to sit around untill the wee (no pun meant Laith?) small hours, but it was greatly appreciated, even if you did all lay very low (no pun meant NK) as we drove past the turn-off on our way to who knows where.

You were fighting it there for a while Darren. You did do all that running around helping to sort dinner so I guess you have an excuse.  :cheers:

PS. Some cool pics there guys.

Arrived home about midday after a very wet night and a wet pack up, left Gronk waiting for better conditions. Thank you one and all for a great weekend, we are looking forward to the next one. The better half is buying me some new hats about 2 sizes bigger after all the nice comments about my build Thank You. I've attached a couple of photos from the weekend and the rest will go in a web folder for all to see, the address will come later tonight

Here's Broady blowing wind up his recycled gas bottle camp oven cookers and Gronk giving the traditional camp oven on the coals the thumbs up. No losers here, both methods ended up a winner.  :cup:

Laith was drinking the same, seems to work alright I sleep well. The rain was a welcomed event like a hole in the head, it was a struggle to pack up, whats worse is the cleaning and drying all the canvas and ground sheet. Russell

Worked a little to well on Saturday night Russell.  ;D Goes down very well but it sneakes up on you.

Couple of cute pics there Dan. Not the last one though. Thats probably one of the reasons some of you guys like to get away.

It was a pain in the preverbial. >:( I was getting pretty frayed around the edges by the time we got onto Pennant Hill rd. Oh well at least there was no real hold ups like the Macksville truck smash drama that Bullfrog had to wait out.

Dan, Great pic of the line up with little Jayden running through. :cup:

with 15kms of traffic to travel through (at 10km/h) and then another 1 hour left to get home (with a stop for the bay in there) needless to say it was a long drive home.. we arrived just after 5pm.. i think we left Crowdy at 11am.

Ouch, slow trip, we left at 1.15pm and went up through Laurieton and onto the highway at Kew ??? following Pikey, and even thought it added 1/2 hr to the trip >:( we still got home at 6.00pm. All at the speed limit. :cup:

Mind you though, little girls are not designed to go 5 hours without a wee stop  :-[ and suffice to say said little girl was asleep  :angel: and didn't know she had flooded Grandads back seat. >:( But it is all good because now the tow buggy is getting a nice new set of Lambswool seat covers. Lesson...re-learned. ;D
