As you will all know we have had a lot of rain here in South East QLD. Well the garage got a little water in it and there was a pile of stuff from out last trip not put away yet and there on the bottom or the lot and the only thing subject to water damage was our camps 4. Lit the fire and got it dry but its awfully crinkley and management is not pleased. Camps 6 should be out I think in march, hope the level of do do subsides by then.....

Ah Pete, had to smile at this, have not been feeling the best for the last couple of days and smiles were the one thing missing - so thanks!
You also gave me the answer to a query at the back of my mind - we also have Camps 4 and with us heading off 'big time' next year will be looking to update to Camps 6, so thanks for the approx. time it will be available.

Any good reason to buy Camps 6. You did that on purpose didn't you Pete?

My thoughts are with you. Floods can be as devastating as fires.
If Camps 4 is all you lost, you are very lucky.
The water and mud gets cleaned up, but the stink stays for ages.
Take care. You may even get the first issue of Camps 6, complimentary, if you've explained what happened to Camps 4.
Worth a try. All the best. Cheers

You shifty sod - I'm sure management would have let you purchase a camp 6 next year - sounds like it worked a treat, might have to do that one myself.......

Sorry to hear your not feeling the best, I find that as soon as I hook the van onto the car I feel a whole lot better, even if I only tow it around the block...

Thanks Pete. RACQ told me January. I don't have one at all, but I guess I can wait til March. I won't be going on a big trip til April or May.
But...I might have to go SOMEWHERE before Xmas. Getting itchy feet.
That's if the rain stops long enough! (I'm in SEQ too.)

Some days I just drive to the end of the street then turn right - next time, turn left. Then its left, left, left & then reverse it up the driveway - Happy again & looking forward to my next jaunt around the "Block"..... I'm a sick puppy. LoL
