Title: Hi from the Gold Coast
Post by: Thwaitsey on November 12, 2012, 07:53:10 PM

Hey All,

My name is John and the wife and I just picked up our first CT, kinda a big step for both of us as we haven't done anything camping related since we were teenagers. We got an on-road fully galvanised Seeker from Swag Camper Trailers in Brisbane. Set it up yesterday - it took a little longer than the 10 minute video we got  ;D ;D and its currently having the canvas seasoned - thanks everyone for the info about that.
We be asking lots of questions and hopefully posting lots about upcoming trips with our two hounds.

And yes I'll post pics cause:  :worthles:

Cheers

John

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone, Germana (the much much much better half)) and I look forward to sharing our experiences with you.

BD - still have a few bits and pieces to get, but Germana wants to go away for a few days over Christmas - eeeeek. Not sure where yet, need to do some research on dog friendly sites around SE Qld.

Cheers

John
