Well done to all involved, by which I mean the members. Sure, there has been a huge effort by the Admin and Mod teams in running this forum over the past 8 years, but a forum is only as good as the members who participate.

People come and go, and come again hopefully, and some stay on forever. It's terrific to see that some of the original members are still here and active and great to see new members joining.

Keep it up folks, keep posting your questions and answers, your photos, your trip reports, your pointless political discussions, jokes and videos, but most of all keep camping.

I am also pleased to announce that we have over 1300 people on the Facebook page.

There were only ~750 on here when I joined, and whilst we've got 15003 members on here this morning, 12/05/14, we've actually had 55,584 join up. I'm pretty sure I have deleted those other 40,000 scamming mongrels, not to mention the other 760,000 scammers who tried to sign up.

 Hi BJ, I must admit I come and go, but have always enjoyed the info and banter of Myswag.

When are we having another Sydney weekend get together?
cheers

I don't envy you that job Julian trying to weedle out the genuine ones that want to join from the scammers the mods do a great job and I love the info on here.

I was actually thinking about this over the weekend. What about Wollondilly River station on the June long weekend.

Could there be any place colder?
Regrettably my family has a christening on that weekend, so unless the meet is very close to Port Macquarie I couldn't make it.
