Easter 2013

[2IC]

well for the last 2 Easter hols I have booked houses at Rainbow Beach but have pulled the pin due to huey putting up awful conditions so this year SWMBO said lets do a road trip instead ''sure I replied'' so we are off to see rellies & friends at Dubbo .. Canberra, Sydney & Nambucca Heads. Leaving on thursday home the following friday. Well I've just looked at Sea breeze WTF the weather is lookin real good. So not happy!!I'll be lookin at miles and miles of bitumen instead of the deep blue. So did anyone else get caught out like me???? Or are you all lucky. Happy and safe Easter.

Hi Billy,

You will enjoy your road trip mate, and regardless what the weather says, it will rain and if people tell you it wont or didn't,,, their lying. Out of all those places you mentioned I think you will like Sydney and Nambucca heads the best (that's if you havnt been to them before). Having said that there are a few things Canberra is good for, blue movies and fireworks... Enjoy your break mate and I look forward to a catch up soon.

Cheers
Marty

Hey Bill
Mate thats murphys law. I am in daddy daycare mode with awsome weather predicted , the motors serviced boat clean and cant go. Our new born baby girl Charlie arrived 5 days ago and is settling down slowly. Not enough for me to go fishing though. When the weather is good after easter though lets hit Fraser eh!!!!!!!

Heading down to the Holiday shack on Wallis Lake for Easter Bill, will do a bit of crabbing and fishing in the tinny. Good news is the Kempsey Bypass is opening tomorrow so that should speed up that part of the drive.

Have fun ..... Dubbo .... still laughing about that one!

Cheers,

Don't feel so bad mate. Some of us are voluntarily heading over that side of the mountains! I've got my fishing fix this week with the new boat so I'm heading over to see some good mates south west of Gundy at a big property and give some feral pigs a touch up!
Travel safe!

Travel to Fyshwick. Do whatever comes naturally. Source fireworks for 1770 M&G. Drink beer. Do whatever comes naturally. Again! Sleep.
Leg 3: Canberra to Nambucca Heads Saturday 30th. Depart Canberra 5am Arrive Nambucca Heads 1pm. Drink beer relax.
Leg 4: Nambucca to Brisbane Friday 5th. Depart Nambucca 5am. Wipe tear from eye. Drive North in a depressed state.

Bill what your doing sounds a lot more fun than what I'll be doing. Painting out 2 bedrooms and shifting furniture, you enjoy the road trip and don't give me a second thought.
