Great weekend, was had by me and me dog's. Mine are exhausted  Did get hot this morning and a bit windy, but yesterday was just lovely, calm and warm.  Even worked out my awning for the first time, a bit of back and forth all was good, but had to put up this morning, when it got windy. Lots of boats, jetskis and campers to watch and new nice people to meet and catch up with others.

Hi all, thanks for your company on my first free camping solo trip. Dogs were buggered by the time we got home, 22k of walkies did the trick! Unfortunately I failed to get a photo of the three chooks to add to the collection! Hope to catch up with you again.

There definitely were 3 chills down the far end by the channel.
I didn't see them but blondenomad reported the strange sight.
Welcome blondenomad, was great to meet you over the weekend. Loved your little dogs as did Jessie.

Can't be the real mongrel and I tell you that for free..The real Mongrel has false teeth and they don't look anywhere as good as those in the pics do..The dogs teeth are its own and the real Mongrel paid a fortune for his and they don't look anywhere as good as those...Here I go putting myself down, well I suppose its better I do it than have those other blokes do it..Alan ,the real Mongrel...
