 OK Doug, look forward to catching up.  Glad to see you will be here a bit longer.  Are you bringing the A van this time?

Cheers!

Chris

 I will have to fly up again Chris as I only have that week off work. I can't get up and back in less than approx 5 days each way. I will be staying in the same CV park as last time.

I'm heading there, I'm 65K on the other side of Mackay. I feel like the body brain has died from driving to long & the MH has learnt how to Rock n Roll' dodging all the holes on Bruce Hwy.
I hear there is at least 250 Caravans and MH's, so may I ask how do I find the GN's?

All the best,

Jeannine.

 Good question Jeannine, unfortunately, most of us don't have anything to identify us as Grey Nomads.  (Must get a sticker).  Maybe we can just communicate via the Forum and arrange a meet up that way.  I have offered to volunteer so have no idea where I will be.  The Winnie will stick out like a sore thumb though, it is all patchy at the front where it has been repaired.  Was supposed to be painted for the weekend, but the weather has been too wet, so will just have to front up looking a bit blotchy.

Cheers!

Chris

PS doubt that there will be any caravans there, it is run by the motorhome club.smile
