So, we went to the camping show and spent a straight 4 hours there.

They wanted us to wait 30 mins to get into the “invitation only” Winnebago and was asked to take our shoes off. We did not wait. Or take off shoes.

Buckets of chips cost $3.90 !! And a simple ham sandwich was $4.70 !!.
A sausage with a bit of bread was $2.70 BUT it did have onion.

You could have had a massage from a (special) Chinese guy and/or buy massage device from a (Genuine) Swedish bloke. For mums they could buy a plastic bucket that was being sold as an “amazing washing machine”. People did not like it when I yelled to the spruker it was just an ordinary bucket with printing on the side. Lol. It did have a “special spout” to empty it however, for those of us who don’t know how to remove a lid off a bucket.

We looked at all the gadgets that were on offer for those people who actually don’t want to go away at all. There was so much crapola.

There was a rock’n’roll dancing display, (which was quite good). There were Thousands of people and we were all being asked to pay $5.00 (not a typo) for an ice cream.

I’ve had my winge now and the show was pretty good if you can put up with all the bleep that they try to spoon feed you.

There was bugger all 12 Volt stuff and not a lot in the 4by ARB/Winch display BUT the guys there were friendly and not pushy at all.

Got to go now.
