Hi Guys and Girls,
I will be roof topping my 12 foot tinny and dragging my Trackabout behind the Old Girl, hopefully the weather gods will be kind and let us get out and do some fishing along the way.

Looks like next years gone. Can we get preference for 2015???????

I suspect this is recreatonal not comercial, but has anybody considered a 2nd trip for the newbies (like me) cos whilst i want to go, couldnt do it without some serious experience.

Someone may organise another next year. Just watch any thread from other members who are heading up there.

Hi everyone
Hate to do this but we aren't going to be able to go on the cape trip next year. We were really looking forward to it but circumstances mean we can't be away for the 4 weeks as we had planned.
We hope you all have an awesome trip.
Cheers

Yeah...........................just having a crappy year at the moment and we're going to struggle to have that much time off. I'd rather make the call early and let someone else get themselves organised to take our place with plenty of time for them to be trip ready !!
There's always next year :'(

Mark,
Just relocated to Melbourne over the weekend and started a new job. Doesn't look like we can make the trip as I will be managing the construction of a new gas pipeline at the same :(
As the pipeline is only short in length, construction will be quick and unfortunately, I will not have anyone to cover me at work.
My family do not know that we can't make the cape this year and will not be impressed with the news either.
Regards,
Nathan

No problems Nathan. These things happen.

Mark,
I was all set to accompany Symon on the 2014 Cape Trip, (because I haven't been up there since 2011!),
but now someone has decided to give me a new job and I start on Tuesday….
Sadly, I will have to remain here and house sit with the fur kids.
Don't corrupt my husband!! ;D

........
Don't corrupt my husband!! ;D
It's too late, Kirsty.....(but you already knew that)...... ;D ;D
Congrats on the job BTW.

Well done on the new job. :cup:
We will keep Symon on the straight and narrow....
I will make sure he has backpacks(ers) in his car. That Swedish brand ;D :D
PARTY TIME :cheers: :cheers:

It is with much regret I will probably be unable to attend this years trip.
With one daughter starting uni this year and another lining up for next year, I'm afraid the finances just can't be stretched far enough.
I hope all those going have a great time.

Hi Mr McGirr, Guys and Girls,
I have been out of work for a while now, ( bloody budget cut backs ) and have been trying to keep things together dollars wise and still be part of this epic trip north , but dollars and sense have come to a point where I can not afford to join you all in your holiday away.
I will try to come down to Cairns and have a few beers with you all , but if I can't make it , I will hopefully be away working. A short term offer came my way a few days ago but as yet no start date.
MarkVS, I will be in contact with you so that you can have the camping permit for you stay at Elliot Falls.
Take care everybody, and bloody well enjoy yourself.
cheers duggie

Fully understand Duggie, you will be sorely missed but look forward to catching up on the next trip or the Myswag Xmas Bash.
Mark

Shit, not good duggie, but fully understand mate. When the chips are down you need to do what you need to do. If you make it to Cairns it would be good to share a beer or three.
-
Sorry to hear this, hopefully the work offer comes good (money and timing wise) and you can meet us in Cairns to ensure the stubby coolers work :cup:.
:cheers:
Peter

This is devastating news Duggie, what are we going to do for fire wood!
Regards , Chris.

That's a shame Duggie. Hopefully we see you in Cairns.

Hey Mark,
Lot’s pulling out! Just think of the beers you’re missing out on now. Can we take some more victims with us?
Chris.
