Heya,

Another newb from FNQ,  we're hiding in the hills near Townsville and have a camper trailer named Eve (shortened  from Evolution).  A bit like granddad's favorite axe, she's now had a couple of trailers underneath and will probably get a new top sometime soon as the canvas aint so grand anymore and her zippers are failing.  Bit embarrassing for the old girl really but she's due for another tart up.

If I've worked out the attachment thing ok there should be a pic of Eve set up in Rydal near Lithgow NSW, great trip we did with the kids a year or so back.

Cheers all,

Yeah we like it up here most of the year.  Weather sucks for camping at the moment though, do anything outside for 3min and you're drenched in sweat! Yuck!

Eve got her new upstairs bedroom added today.
This one's a Pinnacle RTT (Chinese special) that I've chucked on a 40mm square galv frame I made up today.  Came with a downstairs annex and I have some roll out awnings to add to the sides later but this will be home for a few nights over the Chrissy break :D
