Hi there from Jervis Bay NSW
« on: January 12, 2015, 06:30:08 PM »
Hi there everybody,
Had my off road camper for a while a Bushranger Country (hard floor) which I have been towing with a Nissan x-trail. I have just acquired a Landrover Defender Wagon TD5 which with some  :-* tender love should provide me with a more than adequate tow vehicle. My interest is not in particularly heavy 4 wheel driving but just being able to get myself out of trouble when I find myself in tight situations heading to likely fishing spots on the Murray and up in the Snowy. I  hope to meet up with people of like interests as time passes.
Cheers
Michael

Wow just around the corner or more correctly just across the creek  ;D Certainly would love to catchup. My exact location is actually Callala Beach in the Bay. I have been retired for a few months now and am very much looking forward to getting away.
Cheers

Well I am not Irish but I am left handed and if it is possible to do something the opposite way then I can usually manage that. My wife just rolls her eyes and says Your at it again darling ??????. Maybe beer would help.  :cheers:

Welcome Michael
Nothing unusual to see a Landrover belly up out in the bush. Suggest you put a treg hitch on so the camper stays upright. LOL

Tried to get the picture right turned it round but it still saves upside down. Treg hitch didn't work. Must be a way to fix it any suggestions????

Welcome and enjoy - by the way, Pic being upside down is irreversible - caused by Landroveritis and makes sure your oil stays in the sump.
Great partof the country you are in,

Managed to turn the picture around. email to my PC download into Picassa, turned it around, saved it again and then inserted it into the post. It has less resolution now but it is the right way up. Now i can have a beer.  :cheers: :cheers: ;D
