QLD Trip/Gathering Report - Borumba Deer Park, IMBIL. Weekend.

Sorry to dissapoint you Trev that you couldn't start off the report with our side steps being realigned, the batton has to be passed on to someone else at some point... Tag Greg, you're it!!!!!!!
As usual Trev you wrote a great report, you always do.
Thanks everyone for coming along for another weekend get together, was great as usual to catch up with some now known faces and some new faces, and Pezza "Flash Gordon" for riding up for the morning.
It was the quickest campsite we have ever had to pack up, sleeping in the car (all back seats fold flat to a bed) the only thing we had to do to 'pack up camp' was put the esky and chairs back into the car).
Cheers everyone and until another weekend.....
Jo and Mark

PS Shawsie, what part are you from mate? Mark is a Geordie boy! (but lost his accent real quick when he moved out here cause of the flack copped at school!!)

Thanks for a great weekend, Trevor R and gang, and going through the trouble of organising it.
Kristine,Emily and myself had a ball and all Emily could do was ask where the boys were and why we were going home because she wanted to keep camping and playing with the boys.
We left Bruce and Anne at the Nanango turnoff and headed into Goomeri for lunch.
We arrived home about 4.15PM amd came home via the old Burnett highway turning right at Ban Ban Springs and it was a great run back into Bundaberg.
Very few cars to speak of and smooth travelling.

Anytime you decide to do something like this again let us know and we will do anything we can to get there.

Regards
Sparkiepete and clan

Thanks Trevor for organising a great weekend and for all the rest thanks for the great company.
We arrived home about 1300hrs and the old girl (the MU boys haha) even got a tub and was able to polish that big stratch out.
What a great weekend! so what we off again next weekend haha
Take care everyone
Cheers Bruce and Annie

Hi Trev (tour leader), many thanks for organising a great weekend. After leaving from jimna, we hi-tailed it along Sunday Creek Rd and were soon heading towards Caloundra to see the out-laws (Gulp!). I can see Carolyn & I going back to Imbil over summer as Borumba Deer Park was a lovely place and very clean, but we'll take the Kayak. It was great to meat a nice bunch of people and I hope we can can get together again soon - this is what it's all about :o)

"only another 500 meters and we were in low first snakeing our way up the first of the days “good hill climbs".

Well it must be said that this is what we're here for, but so SOON! After practising my stall-stop technique on the first hill (thats my excuse, ahem!), any hill climb after this was going to be a breeze after SWMBO took her heart out of my mouth (Gulp!) however, the Prado went great and I couldn't be happier with it. And for a few moments there I thought that we were really going to go up Big Red! The words 'Holy-S**t' were used a lot...

Jo & Mark, I'm a Yorkshire man born and bred and don't drink Brown-Ale... I couldn't detect ANY twang in Marks accent so he did a good job of getting rid of it, way-ai-man.

Thanks once again.

Morning All,
Great weekend, great company, great food, great 4wding. We had an absolute ball. Gave the Jerrycan a good workout, and it pulled through pretty well. ( it looks good without the sidesteps anyway). ;)
Can we do that again, PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE, can we can we can we.......

Greg, Vanessa and Kiandra

Hi ye all,i am finaly responding having found the report on the bottom of the page.We are happy to to have met you guy's on the weekend,& sorry we had to leave & go to bluddy work today.You all seem keen off roader's it is a shame we could not find anthing more difficult (will not mention that little red hill).Until next time,Regards all Bob.

G'day peoples,
I'm really glad that I made the decision to go up on sunday, even if it was only for a few hours. Was nice to meet a few more formites and to be able to put faces and personalities to screen names. Hopefuly next time I'll be able to do the whole weekend.
Well done Trever for once again organising a top weekend, now that you know where 'big red' is and knowing that we missed it last time, you know we're gonna have to go back don't you!
Greg, you've got the hide to call me a mad b-st-rd, your a bigger bloody ratbag than me! Only met you a couple of times and picked you as one, then saw the photo of you up the tower and thought "now why doesn't that surprise me?"
I reckon that Vanessa can confirm that the only thing that kept you from jumping on the 950 and disappearing in a cloud of dust is the fact that you couldn't reach the pegs! Mate, it's people like you with your 'never give up' positive attitude towards life that make the rest of us walk away on a high after talking to you, and it was a pleasure to be in your company, can't wait till next time!
Bob, maaaate, no stories of a 'flying zook' this time, you slowing down in your old age? lol. Was nice to chat again mate, and it doesn't matter what they say about you, you really are a nice bloke!
Mark, Jo told me about you sneaking off on your little 'thrill seeking, off the main track' adventures, mate you're picking up bad habits from some-one. lol. Ssshhh, I won't tell the tour leader if you don't!
A big thank you to every-one for making me feel welcome, even if I was 2 wheels short and turned up late, though it was only for a few hours I really had a lot of fun ( not sure if it showed :-) can't wait till the next time, where I promise to be more sedate and in 4 wheels:-)))

Avagoodn
Pezza

were is the photo of trev getting pulled out by the 110 hahaha
regards ross

No problems Greg, but Iam going to through my spare compressor in the back just in case also.
On another point what is everyone up to on the June long weekend?
If we dont go camping the caravan and camping show is on at RNA that weekend, I might go and have a look, Greg I could be in trouble with Vanessa for telling you this haha.
See ya Bruce

Just chating to a mate on Skype and wandering about Freshwater , Rainbow Beach probably booked out but can only try, see what happens here and then start a new trips/gathering one on it.
Cheers Bruce
