Wow 3 days without doing a blog, not acceptable so tonight I will catch up, not much to catch up on though.

As I said this place is very basic just a paddock to park on without power or water. But you can get a shower $2 or do the laundry $2 both prices a lot less than other parks. Also this place has very friendly hosts and has a sundowner every day under the big roof, it really is big covering 3 dongas with community space in between. It has only been open since July 9 and our hosts are working hard to make it a viable proposition despite difficulties with the local shire. There have been about 20 people at the sundowner each night and it is very friendly At this stage we are staying here until Laureen and Tom are able to confirm their plans.

Today we made a trip to the local rubbish dump and hardware shop to get the necessary bits to make a portable fire pit. Basically these are old gas bottles cut down and modified slightly, we are getting one and Tom has helped make one for one of the other vans. He has also made a really nice camp oven with fire from a large gas bottle for our hosts  and tonight I made bread to test the new oven......big success.
