Should all the myswaggers wear a pink ribbon in our hair or something?  ;D

Keep an eye for a mum dad and 2 kids with 6 toes and two heads each  :cheers:

It it just me - or do the ticket prices seem to keep going up?

$17 now?

Yep... every year it seems.
In the latest RACV mag there is a voucher - 2 for 1 offer.  Valid only on Thursday and Tuesday but makes the price reasonable IMO.  Also I think parking is free if you get in before 11.

Same price as the Perth Caravan and Camping show.
Why do people ask "What the hell were you thinking?"
Obviously I was thinking I was going to get away with it and not have to explain it....

Went along today.   It was a bit of deja vu.  All the same stuff in exactly the same spots from when I last went in 2010.  A few bargains.    I got myself a Narva lightbar and a pair of Landrover sandals.

Heaps of people there, average age must have been 65.

Cheers

Like how to complain that "they don't make things like they used to?".     

It must be rubbing off.   That's part of the reason why I bought the Narva light bar.  I looks and feels properly built, nice and solid, with a good weight to it, all alloy with no plastic.  Just like they built stuff in the olden days.

I'll be in Melbourne on Monday and would be keen to have a look. Can anyone who has been before late in the week tell me if it's worth it? Are exhibitors packing up to go home by then?

Lashed out and bought a couple of King Goanna chairs ($89 each).  Very comfy!  They were selling like hot cakes.

The ARB tent was like normal, $10-20 more than normal retail, and not likely to throw a discount! >:(

$1199 mate. They have about 10% off something's and that's about it.

I did notice some other brand fridges around the show at very good prices.
