Yo Ho and hit the road...........It's that time.........

[Drover]

It's about that time again when lots pack up and hit the road to visit folks or just try to get away with the tribe, with this in mind I would like to wish all my Expanda mates and their families a safe and happy Christmas, some can getaway, some have to work while some just enjoy being together at home but all in all please take it easy at work and play so we can enjoy the banter for years to come............don't rush it on the road...

So from my wife and I Have a Fantastic Christmas...................................................Ian and Chris.........

I would like to join @Drover and wish all members a safe and enjoyable Christmas. For those on the road, ( I am one of them ) drive carefully, avoid the idiots and have a great time.
I will be at the Lakeside CP at Ballina from tomorrow for 5 days if anyone is in the area,

 

[Drover]

Maybe they are going for a long drive after Ararat ?????? @Crusty181

Stay safe one and all, there's already been a caravan accident in the Hunter Valley, and the Christmas crazies are out there already, trust me I nearly found that out the hard way yesterday
We were off to Young for Christmas and New Year but pulled the plug on that however off to our usual haunt on the south coast mid January.

So Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all here at Expandas Down Under

 

[bigcol]

merry Christmas to one and all

please stay safe, and remember

we will be waiting for trip reports and piccies when you get home

Here are a few shots of our campsite and view at Ballina Lakeside CP. Sunny weather but strong breeze. Whiting being caught but not by me.
Sea lice also in the water, kids have been stung or bitten, I don’t know which they do. Have a daughter and two grandkids in the camper beside us.

 

[Drover]

That looks a nice place for Yaks @chartrock and perfect for the warm weather.

It’s had an outing already, I just need to try fishing from it.

 

[DRW]

Yeah we'll probably just sit around here, or maybe walk the 300 metres to the river or just go fishing but, if you're on the road stay safe, cheers from me and her

 

[chartrock]

That looks great Dave. Can’t wait to try it out.

Due to unforeseen circumstances our South Coast trip has had to be canned
But we will still get away for a while.

That's a shame Bushie, especially after paying out for new boots for the tug.

Needed the new boots anyway as it's the daily drive, but I could have got two set for the price of the vet bill I just got
Bloody pet insurance better cough up

 

[Drover]

Vets, ouch.

One of the reasons we don't have pets. Is that the reason the trip was canned?
