G'day from Tassie
« on: June 09, 2011, 06:21:46 PM »
 Hi everyone on myswag,
I live in the highlands of Tassie. Great to camp in summer but a tad on the cold side thru winter.
I own a ct and now looking at making some changes to it as the minister of fun and finance has approved a 4 week jaunt with our 2 boys thru Vic and NSW next year.

Cheers,
Steve

Welcome to Myswag.  What sort of camper have you got, and what's on the "To Do" list?

It is made by a small company in Vic called serenity campers.
This our first ct after tenting it with 2 little boys we took the plunge and have loved it.

G'day & Welcome.

The mods never stop, so get stuck into those whilst you're not camping over winter.

Hi Steve and welcome to My Swag.
I can see snow up on the highlands from my place at the moment. Must be very cold up there because it is bad enough were I am.
