* sablesoft - just to let you know that JT will be heading up to choose and lay claim to our beach camp spot on the Friday.  This may save you shifting camp if you want to liaise with him and go straight up towards Cathedral on the Friday.

Cheers
Karen


 
 
 

Did you want a room with a view or stay in behind the dunes ?

[MnMs]

Did you want a room with a view or stay in behind the dunes ?

Lucky you to have that responsibility JT.......glad its you not me. 

[Karen]

A view would be nice, and some shade, and maybe a pool with a swim-up bar!  But dependant on the weather and what is available I'll leave it to you.  No pressure here but I will pay   if I vote the spot  .  

Anyone else have any requests.  

Cheers
Kazza

[MnMs]

Just a bar wench will be suffice. 


Marc.

[Karen]

Hey Marc, didn't JT tell you that is why he is travelling over with you.  So that you can make the decision with him before heading off to Kamp Knitting Kneedles. 

[MnMs]

I'll give you a hot tip Kazza....there is no way in hell I am getting involved in that one. 

[Johnny Trackabout]

[Karen]

I'll give you a hot tip Kazza....there is no way in hell I am getting involved in that one. 

At the end of the day we can all camp where we choose and if JT's choice sux then we'll go somewhere else.    But it will be a great spot WON'T it JT!?!?

[MnMs]

Nah... just a serious lift and some 35's should do it...  I very much doubt the Kiwi's would have anything better than what we have to offer here tho JT

Hi Karen,

Sablesoft unable to go to Fraser Island

It looks like Glenda and I will not be able to make the Fraser Is trip, on Easter Friday Glenda slipped and fell on a grass bank and has broken the small bone above the ankle. Bone doctors were all in hiding over Easter, she had surgery on the Tuesday after Easter and got it fixed, plate & pin inserted in bone, her mobility is limited at home and a wheel chair would not go well in the  Fraser Is sand.

We both were looking forward to the trip.

Depending on Glenda's mobility We will review the situation late April but I don't expect it will be viable.

regards
Ray

[MnMs]

Hi guys,

That is disastrous news. Sorry to hear that Glenda is injured and also that you are unable to attend the trip. We are always keen to meet other Swaggers. Hopefully everything heals quickly and you guys are able to attend when you assess later this month.

Best of luck Glenda and we wish you a speedy recovery.


MnM's.

[Ketsi]

Ray,

Not good news at all. Wish Glenda a speedy and full recovery from the Ketsi's. Holding hopes for a better than expected recovery and still see you guys coming along. Otherwise we hope to meet up with you and share a campfire some day down the track.

Take care,
Ketsi

[Karen]

Hi Ray,

That isn't good news on both accounts.  Hope Glenda's recovery is quick and we may still see you on Fraser.  Keep us posted.

Karen

Bummer,........... that's not good, hope it has a happy ending,......................... but on the bright side you now have the opportunity to rack a pile is credits for being such a devoted and caring husband.  
All the best to the patient and hope she has a speedy recovery, you can always catch up with the Myswag group at a later date.

Cheers
jk

[Berg]

Ray what an opportunity, a week away with no ..........What am I saying  
I hope Glenda has a speedy recovery and you can both make it.
There is a guy at 1770 that lives at the park and has big tyres on his wheelchair, it does beachwork every afternoon at sunset, you just need one of them    

[Ketsi]

Checked the post office box today and inside was a fat little letter stuffed with Fraser island info goodies including barge, vehicle and camping permits. So all good to go now except for the last minute preparation of vehicle, camper, camping gear, food and drink...

Coming ready or noooooot....

Hi Ray & Glenda,

Just thought I would check and see how the patient is recovering.  I'm assuming that you are still unable to come along on this trip.  You know you have until the very, very last minute so if a miracle happens in the next day or so let us know.

Cheers
Karen
