HI Robertbruce,
I'm not sure what your post is trying to say.
Whylie Park was used by all and sundry over the years for free overnight camping (24 hrs max).
This privilege was abused by a minority and after repeated damage and filfth left in facilities (again no doubt by a small minority) the Council has recently closed the park to campers of all kinds (whether tent or 32 footer).
I could be wrong but I think no-one can now stay overnight at Whlie park any longer (legally).
So I am at a loss to understand your comment ?
Cheers,
GPM

It was never a privilege to stay at that park... it was avoiding a caravan-park fee or a necessity...
That park was unique - imho. set-up with taxpayers money so people will come and spend money at the neibouring RV service industry at caboulture...
the sudden prevalence of wealth and fifth-wheelers spoiled it for the minority... who reacted by smearing crap over the walls
the minority was a transient mob from a neaby park, there tents were burnt down on the last night...
When i first arrived at Whylie Park i was embarrassed that whole family's were setting up
home there..from there back-packs they walked in with...
Then the greys would sit around laffing, blaming the victims then after using the dump-point would drain there
grey-tanks across the park as they left....
i think some of us are losing what an Australian fair-go really means ... roll on means testing plu-ease...
in the end the local neibourhood centre did a fantastic job where the council failed miserably, but what would you expect from a pack of highly-paid poofs that wanted thier
toilet-block back.....

'roll on means testing plu-ease'
they already do its called INCOME TAX
you know income, payment for WORK done....then maybe you don't.
These so called 'bigots' in there big vans, have WORKED HARD for the money to buy their chosen life style, NOT sat around and cried POOR.
You get out of life, what you put in.......AS SOON AS THE BUMS of this country get a grasp of this the BETTER.
