Title: SWMBO's B/Day weekend in the Yarra Valley
Post by: scarps on August 30, 2013, 05:05:53 PM: Part of the caring sharing relationship we have is that for every couple of 4wd or fishing trips I want to do, there should be a balancing 5star weekend away. So Yarra Valley wineries here we come.

Bit disappointed however when we got to the winery resort. I don't know why they said that don't cater for camper trailers. There's heaps of grassy spots:-)

possibly, but I figure once a year 5star versus 20+ times a year fishing camping trips is a close comparison.
If I do it, then my trips don't come with 'the look' if you know what I mean......

Post by: cruisindub on August 31, 2013, 12:21:38 AM: A fairly reasonable compromise,
I'd be happy if wife wanted a nice weekend away for every couple/three/four trips away where comfort is reduced.

I was also going to say, move the pawns and set up on the black and white squares..........
