Thread: Land Rover Jamboree

Nana Mouskouri.....If I wasn't married.........

Hi everyone,

Have not looked at this thread for some months now and to be frank even though I've just read many of the posts I'm still not sure what is happening.

For what it's worth below is some annual weather info for Rover Park, I'd say looking at it the chances are rain is more of a issue then heat. Yes it could be a bit hot in late January but maybe not as hot as you would think. I have been in Tenterfield in Winter on a few occassions and its not a nice place to be and I judge that as a person who lives in Goulburn.

Anyway can someone please tell me if this event is happening at Rover Park or not, and if not, then where and when? As if possible I'd like to attend.

From what I can see most people are recommending doing something near where they live, so theres almost 100 different recommendations for dates and venues, this is what happens when there is a good idea but no one to actually take control.

I'm interested in going but unless someone actually wants to organise it (not me) and says 'this is where and when' then chances it will still be being discussed in three months time.

Just to be different I vote we don't go to Goulburn where I live.

cheers,
Terry

Ahummmmmmm....CABOOLTURE! Yeaaaahhhhhhhh

I'd do Caboolture, IMHO Tenterfield has got nothing going for it, probably why it's still for sale. At least Caboolture is central to a few interesting places around it so when I get sick of tossers telling me that I don't have the correct wheels on my vehicle, etc... I can grab the wife and kids and go to one of the zoos,parks or even one of the nearby islands.

rover park was sold 12months ago.

barry. you keep sayin your worried about the heat?? wasnt there a heat wave in the high country a few years ago?? think you said it was 47? then the year we went it was snowing?? dont know whats worse.

HTFU

Okay with nothing heard I think it is time for a re-think.

The original plan was June long weekend. MMmmmm.
