We work 10 days on and 4 days off so maybe there might be a few who’d like to join us and show us around.
We won’t be able to do anything now until 17th to 21st May as we need to scoot up to Brisbane to see my mum on our next break.
Looking forward to some replies

The track down to McBride's beach near Forster is certainly interesting if you are game. Though I wouldn't attempt it with out a winch.
You can find a few videos of it on YouTube.
I've only been down once by myself a few years ago in a stock D1 with a winch. I needed the winch about four or five times on the way out.
Be warned.
Once you start heading down you are committed.
But for something more relaxed, a drive up to Ellenborough falls one hour west of Taree on the Bulga plateau is nice drive and place to visit.
