Well we had a ball! The kids got to meet Roothy, Paul Worsteling, Jase Andrews, Shauno and Graham. They had a ride in the monster truck and my daughter had a one hour fly fishing lesson from the great folks at YVFFC.

Did anyone else see the GIC (Black Series Campers) T-Shirt the bloke was wearing and walking around at the show?

He must hate them as it complained hard about them

Went on Saturday with some mates. We were out a good two hours earlier compared to other years. There didn't seem to be as many exhibitors this year, we were all dissapointed by that.

Though, got a small light bar for $20, and got to meet Jase from All4Adventure at his stand, and the mates and I had a fun day giving each other hell, so not complaining!
We've swapped from the camper to a van yay! :)

Friday was a good day to check the quality of canvas on various campers.
I looked at one Chinese parts Australian made?? camper and the bed was soaking wet. Now I know the Aussie canvas is a bit more expensive but I don't care how much more I need to pay to have a dry nights sleep.
Dropped in and chatted with Jase and his wife for a while, The mad bugger was still in a vest and thongs. looked like it was killing him too.
Most prices were a bit ordinary with Recaro being more expensive than my local 4X4 supplier.
The missus had no fear in harassing a few stall holders till they beat their online prices. I sorta felt sorry for em, She's half Dutch and has no fear in pushing sales reps to drop their prices.
Was good to get out and have a wander anyway.

& Bullant, you did an excellent job of getting the perfect angle on the photo so that we could read everything except the actual name of the offending company!  :D  :cup:
