Regretfully up here in the tropics it gets a little warm and the start of the wet season. In saying that I might see what the weather is doing as I have 2 weeks holiday at Xmas.

Have you been there for the New Years Fireworks?

If not, its well worth the night out.
Absolutely fabulous.....

We spend a month in Forster every Christmas and wouldn't miss them.

Might see you up there,
Cheers

Due to the economic forecast the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off   8)
Hehe yeah not wrong, I haven't seen that light for a long time :(
I'm hoping to venture out for a week or so with the kids, but it seems I keep on getting kicked in the balls  :-[

Could you please get some pics of where you stay? I'd like to do Tassie, don't know much about the place or camping ops.
Have a great time! :cheers:

At this stage, we're off to somewhere around Buckland, near Bright (VIC) for a week, but I'm checking out a spot on the Goulburn at Mitchellstown on Friday for a possible couple of days too! ;D
New C/T coming next week, so looking forward to sleeping well while camping!

Depends if we have our new Free spirit caravan, if so anywhere I don't care as long as I get to try it out. Most probably up on the Clarence free camping in luxury.

We're hoping Wonangatta for a couple of weeks at least. Depends on when this baby actually arrives and how well bubs and I recover as to when we go. We like to be setup before the hordes arrive. Need plenty of nappies hanging on the ropes to deter neighbours lol

The missus and I are working all over Xmas. We've got no leave left as we've just got back from a cruise with the kids and our friends, so no camping trips planned until our Easter camp at Clarence Town next year  :'(  (gunna be a long wait).
Safe travels to all those who will be on the road this silly holiday season.
