Was talking to JazzinAround tonight, told her about the meet.
She's keen and hopes to make it too. Will be in the general region.
Beth I looked in my Camps 5 book tonight. Couldn't find it.

 I have Camps 6 and it's in there. There's a map on their website.

And that would be good if J comes.

Beth, Is the only way into the Tandur road to turn off right in Gympie or is there another turn off further south.

 

The actual turnoff is about 6kms south of Gympie, opposite the Matilda Roadhouse. It's not the only way, but the quickest and easiest. 

I actually prefer to be off the highway,,,the secondary roads are usually less stressful.

I've just Google mapped, and coming from the south, you could go through Traveston, or even further south through Cooroy, Pomona and Cooran and follow Old Noosa Road. This is a good dirt road which is well travelled.  Lots of farms along there. In fact, we went in from that direction when sis & bil wanted to see it. We had been to Boreen Point for lunch. It's a lovely drive. 

But wouldn't you be coming from Biggenden?

Thanks Beth. Most likely I will be coming from Biggenden. But I may have been down to the Eumundi Market or something like that.
I know the Matilda Roadhouse, I've filled up there.
Will depend on where I am at the time.

Stupid spelling mistakes.

We usually head up to Queensland a bit later than that, but if we can change our Spirit of Tasmania booking, we will hopefully be there to meet a few members.

 "Landfill" is what they do at the tip.

"Landfall" is what most yachties, look forward too.

Tried to change the dates, but the best we could do was 16th May, which would get us up to the "gathering" at about the 20th or 21st?

Will anyone still be there?

Dusty

 Oh, you've changed your avatar John. Nice to put a face to the name, after all our chats.

Sure Sheba.

Thanks Beth.  Some-one mentioned June on another thread, so I thought I might be able to make it, but probably not now.   I think the earliest my friends will be back will be at the end of may.

Oh well, maybe next time.

Cheers,

Sheba.

We did start off talking about June, but I thought because it's near Gympie that June will be too cold, well for me and my Asthma anyway. So I was the one who suggested May, and the majority went along with it.

June would have been fine if there'd been someplace more to the north, but there didn't seem to be anything suitable to cover all requirements.

So this was a compromise.

 That's right. I personally like the fact they advertise $10 per person. One of very the very few.

I originally thought it was $10 per vehicle which is more to my liking....would cost me $100 to stay for 5 days at the per person rate.

Hi all,
I am planning to be there too. Not quite sure of the date as my sister may be able to house sit for me. If so, I may be a bit late to fit into her schedule.
See you there
Doug.
