OK, so dare I take the bull by the horns and suggest a date and start to compile a list of interested parties?

Thought perhaps the day trip to Bribie may be a good idea to start. Give those that have never 'done' sand before a chance to iron out the creases so to speak and to see if they like it?

Datewise, a Sunday would prolly be the best option methinks. Time wise would depend on the tides so would have to confirm that nearer the date.

Hows about 25th November? Gives us plenty of notice.

What thinks you all?

OK, a list of interested parties so far:

Fluffythecampfireslayer (Rob & Caroline)
TimberFloorAU (Steve & Debs)
KevinBloomfield

Permits available HERE

There have been a few posts in the 4wd for under $20K thread indicating an interest in a 4wd trip.

So, post your interest here... was thinking of maybe a camping trip to fraser or something similar.

Cheers,

We go to Bribie all the time so should be OK for that.

As for the camping trip, what about sometime late December during the xmas hols?

25th is a bit soon for us as we only arrive a few days beforehand-but keep us updated to future events as we love 4WD !

Of course you can Malcolm... and we've got the photos to prove it.

Sounds good but we're out this weekend and next but if you've got nothing on next weekend you could have a ride out to our secret rock band location.
