Fantastic Andrew! Will do!

I could possibly hope to add some AULRO sponsor names to the list too.... anyone there????

Cheers
Chris

Chris,

When you say sponsoring is it in regards to financially backing them or showing them around and letting them dos down and get fed for a night or two?

hehe.. We need both Mat.

I'm starting to contact Land Rover-related suppliers and dealers to ask them for financial support in the way of services, parts, etc, and organise some exposure for them - once I have the press side covered. I'm going to ask them to cover the cost of the 60k service, brakes, tyres, etc.

Hopefully some TV station or group will see the storyline from the cooking angle, and have them on something like Ian Hewitson's show or similar.

As far as the rest of us go, we're asking that as they make it across the country, local clubs and individuals may like to show some hospitality and either have them along on a trip, let them in for the night or at least let them use the back paddock.

Any help is warmly appreciated Mat

Cheers

I would mind to but couldn't afford to back them financially,perhaps a whip around could be the go there, but put me down as a potential guide to any fishing, tourist, or 4wd activities around Lake Macquarie, Watagans and Hunter region. We live in suburbia but I'm sure we could find a paddock for them to stay in (as long as the don't mind horses)

Don't worry - we won't be asking individuals for any monetary support. Just show them a good trip, a beer or a bottle of wine and some good campfire conversation. Thanks for the fishing suggestion - it'd be great to do the Lake Mac area as I'm up there fairly often too.

Excellent! Love the Hunter Valley one, and Stockton. They're all good!

I'm happy to organise local contacts (4WD clubs) and areas to see down our way. We can also help with space to doss either in the house or on the block. I may be able to arange accommodation round albury as well.
