Hi All

Have not been around for a while, I finally got the courage up to sell the wife's Disco. But the Landrover bug bit again and I just bought a 2a,it should arrive from Sydney today(CAN'T WAIT). I think the get together is a great idea. I had a bit to do with the Landcruiser corroboree at Pamona last year as I was their 4WDQ association rep and it was a great success. Just an idea on a charity if you decide to go that way, what about "careflight", they do a sensational job and I know they had their funding cut back dramatically last year or maybe the "guide dogs". Just a thought?. I will post a few pictures when my new baby arrives, it should be fun having a toy again.

Cheers Ian

luv to be in it

Id be in it.

This is a great idea, maybe also some sponsors IE Land Rover, TMJ, ARB

They could contibute through aulro to the venue and charity.

Anymore updates on this?

Great idea. I live at Comboyne, if you don't know it its like a smaller version of Dorrigo but a bit small, lower in altitude and further south in b/w Taree and Port Macquarie. When we were looking for properties some years ago we did around 2 Thousand K in two weeks travelling thru state forests etc b/w these two plateaus. You could pretty well travel between the two plateaus thru the forests. The scenerys great, good mountain trails, lots of rainfall, rainforest, volcanic soil, farmland. These areas link the coast with the tablelands. I can definately say that some small towns that are a bit out of the way do it tough economically and are often looking for ways to attract groups to their town. For example a big mountain bike event was held at Comboyne some years ago which was a big boost to the town. Also a lot of these places are not given much gov funding for anything - including roads. Even if AULRO tourers got behind the local community of the town they are in AND RAISED THEIR VOICE it would raise the profile of these issues for the town. Ask the local community what charities they are behind would be one way also. I can tell you guys that there are a lot of farmers doing it tough, getting screwed by the middle men and the retailers while dealing with what nature throws up. It amazes me that so many of these agriculturally productive places get so little back - its all one way traffic to the cities. Land Rovers importance historically to Australian agriculture is a strong link and is probably worth considering in terms of venue for the future - its nice to provide a counter point and remind people that Toyotas did'nt build this country!
I'm rambling now - A Jamboree is a great idea keep it growing.

Far out, thats a lovely story. We have neighbours that play music LOUD form time to time and its ok but sometimes it annoys me big time but they are always open to a polite "mate the kids are asleep and I cant, please turn it down".
By the way I had forgotten about Nanna and thanks now I cant forget the torment of my child as my parents played it.
As for a jamboree I am all for it in Vic or southern NSW somewhere like Wagga or a bit higher.
Cheers
James
