Sadly, I can't claim all the credit for this one.

This is a new height in screw ups for us.

I've done it too. One Saturday morning in July saw us raiding the opp shop and salvos in Wingham and Gloucester before heading to Barrington Tops.

Look on the bright side, at least it is warm. I was shopping to cloth her for the snow.

She now has visions of shopping for all new clothes.
The best we've done till now was leaving pillows for 3 kids at home. Got some in the small town of Woodenbong believe it or not.
I also just found I left keys at home for camper.

Normally all my fault. Today, I'm sharing blame as she was asleep this morning when I came looking for her stuff.

Been there, done that. Drove from Melbourne to Cobar, and upon set-up, found I'd left small noisy child's clothes and the missus' doona at home..  :-[

I'm not living that one down any time soon.  :'(

I think you will find hastings st and Noosa in general is an an RV friendly place. Dump points everywhere and double length trailer parks in the main st.  Lots of taps to fill your tanks in public places. Free camps just next to the beach as long as it is for no more than three nights. Although I could be wrong. .....

HAHAHAHAHA funniest thing I've read all week  ;D I remember going for dinner along there not long after we got our new Kluger. The car parks down the end are soooo bloody narrow you could barely open the doors to get out.

Funny enough I love a good country op shop.  Daughter packs for herself and always forgets something. We always end up at an op shop buying something. Daughter realises now when I say don't worry what it looks like cos we won't see anyone where we're going that I mean it......
