We are on 5 acres up near Seabird . We have bore water and rain water for drinking ,cant offer you power . So if you are set up for free camping you are most welcome to join us. We are 12 kms from the beach and Moore River and about an hour north of Perth. Pets are welcome (and if they like chasing rabbits and roos even better!!)
There is a caravan park in Guilderton for those who prefer powered sites.
Have posted this in general.

Thanks Sue and Phill, will be there if possible! smile

Bump.....

_wombat_ · Master (of Mischief)

will be trying to get there, will phone you next week Sue & Phil, how long would it take to get from Toodyay to your place, my GPS is saying 107 klms but it has to be more than that?

sufil · Guru

Thanks for bumping this Vic, was on my todays to do list. Hope a few can make it.

Wombat, we go thru Gingin, across to GNH just north of Bindoon, turn off at the top of Bindoon Hill at the Catholic Farm School and into Toodyay. Don't have the map in front of me so can't tell you the road names but Phil says it takes a bit over an hour as the bit from Bindoon Hill to Toodyay is quite narrow and winding.

Pejay is calling in this morning on his motor bike ramble northwards. He was camping at Moore River Bridge last night. We were on one of our airport runs when he rang so there was no one home last night.

sufil · Guru

The space is there whenever you get here Jules. We are more than happy to have friends drop in any time!!

you still got a hangover mate?

Vic, sorry for the short answer I was having problems with my iPad

sufil · Guru

He saw Roo tracks and rabbit scratchings...does that count Dougwe?

It was good to meet Wombat and Mrs W, morning tea and lots of talking followed by a walk around the firebreak. Not a lot of flowers out on here at present, a few cats paws, egg and bacon, wattles. The red and green kangaroo paws aren't out yet. By the time we had finished our walk it was time to have some lunch and suddenly it was 3.30pm and the Wombats had to get back to Toodyay to put their charges to bed. Was a great day made even better by the sun shining all day (despite the forecast of rain)

Looking forward to the get together in a couple of weeks time.

I should be back on deck by then. (I had spinal surgery yesterday for a pain management implant which if it works means I will be able to stay upright for longer than an hour at a time and should even get some life back!!)

_wombat_ · Master (of Mischief)

thanks Sue & Phil for a great day, sorry to say Dougwe would not know how to track a kanga or rabbit.

Just got back from Wongan Hills and no flowers there I thought we were a bit early, maybe another 3-4 weeks, or a bit higher up nth.

Sue, how are you going with the new vibrator? biggrin

sufil · Guru

It will be good when I work out how to use it!!

I THINK it only needs batteries and then you turn it on, but I have never had one.

Ask the twins.... wink biggrin biggrin biggrin

When I was there a few weeks back I saw a couple of Kangaroos on a vacant block on the way in, they looked quite at home. smile

They checked my vehicle as I went past to make sure I didn't have any Wombat's on board. wink

Hope your back is feeling better Sue, not nice at all! cry

Hi Sue and Phil, we have just arrived from the East coast and have commenced a house sit in Tuart Hill

so would be very interested in attending your get together in September.

Vic41 has put us onto this GTG and your property sounds a great place to be for a GTG.

Hope to see you then

cheers

Terry and Liz

sufil · Guru

You more than welcome to join us Terry and Liz. Got some other eastern staters coming as well. They are calling in on Tuesday or Wed this week on their way south then are coming back for a few days so they will be here for the weekend too. We have plenty of room. The woodshed is full, the campfire area is ready, the undercover area needs the fridge moving into it and we are ready to go. Looking forward to it.
A neighbour just called in and said her parents took off on their Grey Nomad trip and things went south in QLD so they have their fifth wheeler on the market and are back at her place so have invited them to join us as well.

Our thoughts are... that people come when ever they wish be it one day or week, (we have water but NO POWER so will need solar or genny), we are pet friendly and as long as your fur baby is chook friendly they don't need to be on a lead when the chooks are out . ( we wont let them out on the weekend otherwise they will be in your vans, underfoot, sitting on your chairs and generally being pests, they think happy hour is specially for them and will be on your knee and expecting all food and drink to be shared!!).

Shared group tea Saturday night. We have a bbq and gas pizza oven that people may use. We want to people to relax and have a great time, sit and chat , look for wildflowers, go to the beach and river (12 kms away), whatever you wish to do. (( And if you are desperate for something to do there is lots of weeding and bush clearing to be done!! ))

Howdy Sue & Phil,

If you still have room for another van, we would love to come and join you for the G.T.G,

I think it's about time we put a few faces to the names of a number of members that we have been in contact with since joining the Forum.

All going well and with the Quacks permission we hope to see you around the 6th Aug,

cheers K.J.

Jayco Gypsy · Senior Member
