Hi from another newbie......
« on: June 14, 2014, 10:28:09 PM »
Well, this is a brand new experience for me........... have never ever posted on an online public forum before.......it feels a bit daunting to this techno-dinosaur!
Am far more comfortable sitting on the sidelines observing...... as I have done for many months here as a guest- but you can't be a guest forever :)
And there seems to be such a sense of community- and a wealth of knowledge here...
My husband and I dived in, after much research, 2 years ago, into the world of campertrailers (after our tent died), with our rearfold Safari Trackabout- to which we have just upgraded our kitchen to a Drifta.
Our only regret is that we are so time-poor, but we so love just getting out with it.
Looking forward to what we can learn here- and to what we can offer.
Thanks.

Welcome to your first ever forum.  Well done for taking the plunge  :cup:

A Trackabout with a Drifta kitchen is a mighty CT.  Good choices.

Hope you enjoy your time on here

Happy camping

Wow...... thanks guys for the welcome...... all in the space of a few hours.
Yes, we are pretty happy with our CT...... :)......... all the time spent researching certainly paid off! So easy to just jump at the first thing that you see and like- but we are glad now we didn't move to quick on decisions.
And yes, I will post up some pics- once I work out how!! Remember I am a techno-dinosaur!

Welcome to MySwag, you have a great set up and time is always hard to come by to get out and enjoy it. After the winter chill join in one of the Vic meets to get to know some other swaggers

Welcome, enjoy. Gotta make those trips when ever you can, even if it's just an overnighter.
