Hi Derek,
Yep the tickets arrived.
Thanks again.
I will drop in & say hello on either Saturday or Sunday.
We were planning on coming down Sunday, but realised Sunday is the Worlds Biggest Pub Crawl.
So if I have my way it will be the Camping Show on Saturday & Pub Crawl on Sunday.
If my wife has her way, I will see you Sunday.
from Marty.

Yep, will be there; probably Saturday. No money either, but I reckon I'll be dribbling on a few camper trailers. We'll be in the market for one in about 6 months so it should be a good opportunity to see a few top brands side by side. Hopefully I get approval to get at least one new toy though! haha!
Cheers
Scoey!

As for the show,
Boy am I at the other end of the scale when it comes to camping out ....... in my trusty tent.
The varity of caravans, camper trailers, motor homes etc etc was amazing as was the attached prices.
But the prices did not seem to stop people as heaps were being sold. I will say for offroad trailers the thought that has gone into some is very good and others hmmmm not sure if they would survive a dusty road let alone a serious offroad track.
For me I simply went to meet new people and pick up a few things for my vehicle and simply sticky beak around.......... FAILED on the meeting part.. well an EO member anyway, checked out plenty and did extract my wallet and purchased a burner for my Hillbilly camp oven, a couple of recovery hooks (don't trust the rings on the bullbar) and Stuarn Tyre deflators. I've put the beer in the fridge for the setting of the deflators.
Other items of interest
Explorer fridge 70 l ($2090), R&R Beadbreaker (full kit ($365) (breaker only $198) Winch extention straps and longer snatch strap (forget price) only so I got more of them or as i put it (Just in case straps).
There were some good prices on items a pity not all in what i was looking at.
Anyway I had a good time and if i get the chance will return before it closes.
Brian
