Newcastle caravan and camping show

Newcastle caravan and camping show I would have to say I’m pretty disappointed. Some great things to see but really could have just driven to Heatherbrae and seen all that was on offer without having to pay entry. The vans were inflated in price the the “show discount” brought them back to the normal price in my opinion. What a waste of a day and parking was a nightmare. Save your money and don’t go. You really see more going to the dealers site and I believe you will get a better deal.  The show lacked variety of manufacturers and really it just had high end caravans. The camping gear is better at 4WD Supacentre.  I’m not sure if this is the same as the Rose Hill show in Sydney so I won’t be bothering anyway.

Camper Progress (LED Lighting)

Camper Progress (LED Lighting)  Today Iinstalled the cheap LED Light strip I bought off Ebay. I only had enough to do half the camper so I purchased another 5 meter strip. I have bought a great 5 meter strip at a 4X4 store that I will use on the outside of the camper, Inside the awning tent. We also installed more Sail Track so we can use a tarpaulin off the side in bad weather. This was great until we realised we left the Caulking gun on the roof and had some pretty fancy stretching to get it rather than lowering the camper again. What was great was my 15 year old daughter did most of the work. It was a great boding moment.  We head to Canberra on the 15th April for a few nights so check us out if you can. Greg
