Bloody hell, camping in Winter!? Hard core.

Remember not to pitch your tent under any tress. If the Drop Bears don't get you, their poop will burn holes in your tent.

Just dont park your tent under a tree (seriously, we lose at least one person a year to trees falling on tents). You should be fine with a 4 season sleeping bag,

I agree - but generally (watch out - sweeping statement alert ) branches don't drop as much in this type of winter.

Often ours drop in extreme stress of hot days - they do it to protect themselves!

AND a fan heater

AND an electric blanket

Which coast? Piggin chilly here. I'm a UK camping virgin and an Aussie camping virgin and have no intention of losing it anywhere. A truly bizarre and horrendous way to spend an hour let alone days

You need an Ozpig it will keep you toasty and you can use on the islands as low fire risk.
