Thanks for the tips both. Local branches of Coles etc don't have a copy of the book (which looks perfect), so will try some independents or feed my Amazon habit. ![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Haven't heard of Lake Rawson, will have to investigate further!

The visitor centres at barrier Lake or Bragg creek are always good places to pick up books

OK.....I am surprised no one else has mentioned this. In certain circles I am reliably informed 'British couple seeks hiking buddies' could be construed as 'code' relative to activities far removed from 'hiking'..........![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
Car keys anyone.....![LOL](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/lol.gif)
OK, I'll get my coat..,...

We have put an ad out on Kijiji as well as BE.
We don't mind if people have kidlets, we are just keen to get out there and meet other people and have a good day in the mountains.
And no macadian, we are not looking to share any other activities with people we have just met other than hiking:0) but at least it grabbed people's attention!!
Thanks kdodgeball for the www.meetup.com info. I have just joined one group and will be looking to join some more!

By way of an update, we're having success with Meetup.com.
For those who have PM'd us so far, seriously consider joining as it ticks all the boxes!
