Thread: Nelson member camping get together?

@Vietnamcam, next weekend 8-9th, The penguin and Myself and my youngest are looking to head up Friday morning, meeting 223nut in there if he makes it up Thursday night.

Weather forecast has improved for the weekend, I'm pleased about that.
Just giving the camp ovens a tickle up and getting sorted so I can dash to the sports shop after work and then pack the truck tomorrow evening.
Looking forward to heading away

4wd stuff lives in truck, gun stuff in dufflebag along with tent and sleeping bag, food to be brought on the way. Anyone else going in tomorrow?

Doesn't look like I will be bringing family camping but I might turn up one evening or morning to put some faces to names.
If you see a fat guy in a 2 door Rav it's probably me.

Indeed, it's the main reason I'm coming up. And the fact that the pooch is having pups in a fortnight so will be tied to the house for the next 2months

Was hoping to make it, but theres bigger forces at play, soccer tournament in Chch starting stupid o'clock on Sunday. Was also hoping for a name to face night in Nelson in August, but the national calling competition has been canned, and theyre holding it at the Sika show now. Next year.........

Yeah Caves hut.
@223nut, keep your radios I have one in the 4wd, what channel will your radio be on? I can give you a yell as we head in so you can have the billy on.

If I go I would be in the mighty Pajero, i have 8 clay target throwers to upgrade power supplies too first opposite the penguins drive way. Not sure how long it will take.

Can you upgrade them enough to hit the penguins house from down there?
