Please read carefully:
We need to know who is interested in going on the trip. As mentioned the trip can take up to 2-3 months and we will be exploring a lot of the Kimberley and more.
Members who may decide to start the trip and finish early or join up later in the trip please do not put your name up we are only interested in people who will be doing the whole trip. It makes it a lot easier for the planning committee to work out numbers etc.
So members who are 90% sure they will be doing the whole trip (2- 3 months) please copy and past the info below and add your name. Remember only members who will be doing the whole trip.
1- Mark and Penny and Bisket the dog

As you are after those who will be doing the whole trip with you we will have to bow out as we will be doing a lot less kms per day than most people due Jan not being able to handle anymore then a couple of hours in the vehicle when travelling.
But as we are still very interested in seeing the Kimberleys we will be following the trip with great interest.

Still keen to tag along but I don't want to commit to following the entire itinerary so we will be there but not officially part of the group in this case. Cheers, Justin and Erika

If members who are going for the full trip please put your name down by the end of May please. Then members who wish to join on parts of the trip can put their name down.
This helps us with the planning.

Still really keen for this and have the time for the whole trip, however where did all the kids go from the original posts?
I'd have 2, boy 9 & girl 8 (current ages). Is anyone thinking of taking kids along for parts?
-
We all sold our kids to pay for the trip. ;D
If you are keen to go add your name ;D
Also could members who have put their name down on the list please send me an email , if you haven't already , mark_mcgirr@yahoo.com, so that we can keep every one in the loop on the planning.
The first stage of the trip has been done and sent to all members who have sent me their email addresses with second stage coming soon.

Hi Mark

Friends of ours did trip last year with their dog.
They said they had no problems at all finding boarding kennels to put up their dog when they went anywhere it wasn't allowed...

Geez, think I missed this so letting ya know Greg and I are going FOR SURE! My LSL is already approved.
-
Well I have delayed this for as long as I can in the hope that I will somehow still be able to make this trip, but the harsh reality is that we simply won't be able to make it.
Kirsty and I are gutted that we have to bow out, this would have been the trip of a lifetime for us and we were so, so keen to go on another trip with people who are already good friends and hopefully meet some new ones.
Although I have over a years worth of LSL and AL on tap the timing of the trip means I would be away at the very worst time for the project I am working on. I was hoping that dates would move which would allow me to still make the trip but that seems increasingly unlikely now.
Hopefully someone from the backup list will take our spot and have a fantastic time!

That is not good news...surely they would delay the Project so you can go on the trip .... ???

Hey Mark, do we know who is confirmed now ? Simon was a withdrawal and barraboy put up his hand. I am certain Ospross won't be there (except maybe Katherine, Lake Argyle?). What about everyone else ??? Haven't seen much from a few names for probably a year :-[ Do we know if they are coming ??? ??? ???
