So how many are there?

GU Rich · September 29, 2011, 07:54:16 PM

For those of us who couldn't make the trip could someone let us how many swaggers are there!! I was an "almost" but just couldn't swing it.

I'm not after names as I understand some don't like to advertise when there away

There were 11 here last night. Its cool and windy, a good reason to go for a sight seeing drive.

Is that 11 people or 11 camps? We'll be there tonight...just have to make a
little unplanned detour.

areyonga · September 30, 2011, 11:28:28 AM

Another 3 just arrived and its raining

GU Rich · September 30, 2011, 12:01:00 PM

So 14 cool.

bj4408 · October 01, 2011, 09:11:25 AM

The boys did a count last night and think it is 28 campsites but JK should be able to give a total signed in later. This includes a few people who are in tents.
Had rain, wind and small hail last night. Sunny but cool this morning with a lazy wind that goes straight through.

Hope the weatjer picks up for you guys, thought I spotted a swagger on Brighton Road in Adelaide this morning!!

Mav · October 01, 2011, 07:11:25 PM

Well there looked like quite a few when we drove past Beautiful Valley CP around 12:30 today. We made a few calls on the UHF but nobody responded. Well no myswaggers responded but some folk from the Octoberfest rally responded.

We could nnot stop as we needed to get to Broken Hill this afternoon.

GU Rich · October 01, 2011, 07:25:42 PM

Sounds like a good turnout, If its on again next year I'll try and come over.

I was going to this year but a new job got in the way....

Symon, what happens at the meet stays at the meet...only kidding, The uploads are a bit suss and some are having problems, Check Jill's blog as she has been taking lots of pics. Regardless, we will posting some when we get organised.

JK said that 29 swagger plus partners & kids so I guess that there is in excess of 70.

Much better day todays - 4.2c overnight but the BIG campfire kept us warm.

Hope all is good at home, by the way, keep an eye out for Brett & Jilsy, they may be headed your way after the Bathurst weekend..he has your mobile number.

We ended up with 30 campers all up and it was fantastic that so many were able to make it and we could finally put some faces to forum names!!
