| Details: | ********** UPDATE *********** PS as it is a DPaW camp site there will be fees payable Adults $7-50 Under16 $2-20 (per person / per night) I'll collect Saturday morning. ********** UPDATE *********** Ok so due to the popularity of these two trips we now find ourselves in unique situation of a whole lotta campers and no where to go. The only area in the South West that we can fit 12 plus campers/tenters is Chapman Pool. I have spoken to the 'locals' and we now have a plan which should allow us all to fit. Pommy and I are going to share the campsite. Those who can make the early departure time of my trip can join me. We need to go down early to secure the camp area. Those who can't then will have to come down with Pommy and the rest of the workers. Any others I suggest you contact Pommy(by phone as email down) or myself (my email works). If you could all update your trip registration that will greatly assist the trips leaders in organising things. ************************ We want to tag along on Pommy's trip but he won't let us because our tent is too big. So we are going to try to shadow him as best we can with the Glamper in tow. Shhhhh we hunting Pommy's. No promises, no plans but we will have a holiday. Suggest Glampers be self sufficient as we have no idea where Pommy is going or where we will be parking. Please note trip will be closed week before departure so I know how much face paint I need for camouflage. ;p Them Pommy's are kinda hard to follow if they see ya coming. | |
