So.... is it Bruce's house boat at Murray Bridge for Easter this year? Need to start the planning stage for our Easter trip south so we can organise how long Margaret needs to take off work 8-) thinking a week before and a cruise down via Rutherglen would make a great trip :D

Sounds good Terry!!
I'm looking around to see if there is a good free camping area close by.
In the marina I'm only allowed parking spaces for 2 vehicles.
The marina is also a caravan park so you can imagine that he obviously wants people to stay in it.
I'm hoping to have an idea of what I need for the solar/battery setup by then?? (help!!)
I'd really like to be close to a big town so if something is needed it can be easily & quickly be obtained.

I could say "please explain" but I won't............
I'm on 38 .......... (which is your boat?)
40 is empty at present. Is that where the run down 'pigeon breeding' boat was moored?
Once they shifted it the cute little birdies had to go somewhere!!

Onsite caretaker Bruce. This is part of the CMCA RVFT agreement.

I have quite a few changes/modifications that I want to do in the immediate future Wayne & Nini but once I've done them I will "open up the doors" as they say.
If you're talking about the get together I'm more inclined to just let anyone come along that may wish to join in.
To be brutally honest I wouldn't care if pop-top campers, camper trailers or million $$$ Motorhomes come. If anyone causes trouble we'll get Brian to use his outback hardened right foot to move them on!!!
