There may be one plus to this weather (ie endless rain): the inskip barge landing beach should not have the same demons in it that have trapped so many, Mr JC more than once from memory.

We might be going over during next week for a shorty 3 day stay. We got some friends coming up from NSW and arriving on Tuesday.
If we do end up going over to fraser, i could leave home a bit later to get to the barge, as i'll save myself an hour not having to dig a jeep and ct outta da sand.
