No didn't do any caves. Was too late in the day. Did a walk down to the limestone gorge to the river. That was nice.
Went home via Goulburn, that was a lot safer.

The What Did You Do On The Weekend Thread!!
- Thread starter cruza driver
- Start date
yes, the caves is a nice spot, been there a few times with friends and vans, but you are better off going down to Goulburn and in from there. Just as quick, wider road, tar most the way and my kids don't get sick. Better all round I reckon. Barney.
I booked in to goto broadwater caravan park gold coast on 21th-23rd if any one is keen and it a RDO weekend how good is that??
We went to Bretti Reserve the other weekend for a quick trip, Rain all weekend and got just enough time to sent the copter up for a pick. 10 min later rain again.
Went down to Dunsborough for the weekend. wanted to test out the new rear bumper with the spare and 2 bikes on it, as well as the new drawers - all went well! Pictures are in the My Van forum.
Very quiet and relaxing as we were the only ones in the park yet. Right on the beachfront - so we went for a few swims. Well known Cake shop down the road - it only opens on Saturday morNings and is always crowded1

Got the van and cars washed today. Wrapped the van back in its rug not that it needs to stay warm in this bloody heat! Actually it's depressing as it means that we aren't taking it anywhere for a while. 
Even swmbo said it doesn't look right covered over now.

Spent the entire weekend at the Grand Prix.
Think I've only missed 2 since it came to Melb and did the last 4 in Adelaide before that.
Took my 12yo son for the first time.
He absolutely loved it, and also got to meet one of his all time hero's too:rockon:

Ok well my week end is over while every one else's is about to begin. Had a busy on with mod's and repairs.
1. Seal all holes in van floor, Tar the under side of van floor.
2. Refit every thing removed for the tar job, well almost.
3. Finish off pressurisation of van
4. Whilst carrying to above mod, found shower has been leaking after being repaired which has now damaged wheel arch cover in van. So pulled shower door and frame apart, re-lacqured all timber and resealed shower frame.
5. Wired switch for fridge fans so that i can switch them off at night.
Man i think i need to go back to work for a holiday.

my young bloke and myself slept in van in the shed while daughter had 8 10yr old sleep over for her birthday.
Wise move, might have do that myself, we have an 18th next month though doesn't know what she wants to do.
We went and watched the Bulldogs thrash the Tigers by 2 points yesterday at Etihad
Where's the dislike button?????????!!!!!.................
We had a lot of toys turn up during the week. 270w kickass solar panel. GME TX3500s UHF and GME Antenna and our Holiday Annexes bed end canvas flys. Also had my spot lights correctly wired (mob did it incorrectly first time round) and dual battery wiring finished during the week. So had these to check also.
Started by setting solar panels up and figuring out how they work. Installed the bed end flys! Very happy must say. However during the install i got a piece of aluminium in my eye , not even during the drilling part, can't figure that out. So this put a bit of a dampener on getting the UHF installed. Went to the dr, he had to dig the aluminium out and luckily enough for me no damage was done but had to wear a patch for the rest of saturday and then sunnies all day sunday.
So Sunday, did a bit a mowing and then went and bought the little girl her first camera.
