Welcome to the forum.  Nice looking setup you have there.  Are you going to come the national meet on the 28/29th?  Would be nice if you could get out just for a day to say g'day.

Happy camping

Welcome Yupyup.  Love visiting around the Grafton area, was actually down camping at Wooli last week.
We, including the Border Collie, had a fabulous time and certainly plan on going back again. Enjoy the forum.
