Who the hell is Harvey Crumpet ?
Hi Mick, Will be 2+1 in my car (+1 is the bub). Went to Rick's today and we have decided to upgrade the Front Bar and Tow Bar before doing any work on recovery points:twisted: , so the recovery points will not be done for the day:( . Hopefully no issues with that......let me know. Now just need to find the money to get the work done so i can join in on the real fun.

Hi Mick,
Might be a silly question but where is the Tick Inspection Booth on Kennedy Drive? I know Kennedy drive but have never looked for or noticed a Tick Inspection Booth. Coming off the highway is it west under the highway or east towards Tweed?
Cheers Philippe

If you or anyone else gets lost call me on 0422 132 225.
See you there, Mick
