Hi from Brisbane
« on: January 25, 2011, 10:58:44 AM »
We are eagerly awaiting the arrival of our first camper trailer. We have ordered a Customline Deluxe and we hope it will be ready in about a month. Very excited and looking forward to the challenge and adventure of heading out and about.

Cheers
Ronnie and Mandy

Hi Guys,  :cheers:

Welcome to MySwag. Plenty to glean from this forum

Welcome to the Forum, the month will go quickly and you will be able to get out and about. While your waiting get the pen and paper out and start working out the huge list of mods you can add, enjoy your stay.

Yay, we got the trailer. Yes, speewa158 the coldies are definitely taken care of. We had our first trip out at Lake Somerset. It's great to have a home away from home. I think we might try and make it to the Sharp Park trip coming up.  :cheers:
