Saturday morning at the camp ground just north of town, around 10am? I'll be there all morning so feel free to arrive earlier, the coffee will be brewing

No worries, coffee white with two sugars please.

I aim to be there by 9.00am

After the pub. If you haven't found the camp site on the left and hit dirt, turn around...

Tomorrow I'll be gearing up Ruby Scoo, big tyres, camp gear and wood for the fire etc.

Friday should hopefully see me off at 11am - I'm planning to take it easy at the Snowgies on the thursday night.

And I've got a new toy to play with too

But you'll have to wait and see what that is

Cheers

The camp ground is a bit over 1km past the Star Hotel on the left (eastern) side of the road. The Wally Pub looks like a house, but there will be a dozen cars out front, and its not all that far past the coach turn around area and is on the right hand side of the road.

As Bennie said if you hit turn dirt when looking for the camp ground you've gone too far.

Well have a UHF on hand in case there is no mobile reception, channel 32.

Full tank of fuel (or as close to it as it can be on the mount) - check
Big boots - check
Wood for fire - check
Personal items - check
Recovery gear - some where in cargo area of Ruby Scoo - check

Need to pack:

Banana lounge,
Toiletries,
and I think that's about it, I hope.

Looking forward to it! Now to survive snowgies

I don't know what my ETA will be - going cross country and just following my nose with the help of an original GPS - The Country Vicroads book

Hoping the Dargo road will be open...

Cheers

Bennie
