G'day All Came across a nice place called Flanagan Reserve Bush Camping that may suit our needs when the weather cools down a bit . Neil suggested a place called Bigriggen but they are not pet friendly and it looks like no power as well  so that how i came across Flanagan Reserve  this place ticks all the box's for our group and less than 2 hours drive from Brisvegas in the Rathdowney area at the foot of Mt Maroon  Would be good to have some feed back on this one and also when would be an appropriate date. dosse  Here is the website to click on www.flanaganreserve.com.au/ |

G'day all, Just have a little bit more information about Flanagan's Reserve. Spoke to Jason the manager....we discussed the extended use of generators and he said that he could bend the rules on the times of operation. Also can supply continuous power during the night for Ob & Lyn's van if they wanted to come. Looking at possibly Friday 1st to Sunday 3rd April. Regards, dosse |

Hi All,
That ones out for us . Too far to drive 2 cars, & the 3 of us dont fit into my hot rod. We are pretty well out of longer distance events until I get my Dodge rebuild finished.
We can make it to anything up to about 2 hours from here in 2 cars, but beyond that will be out for a while.
So Cooli Rocks on in June, & Canungra will be about it this year for us. Thinking of maybe hiring a dual cab ute for Tara camel races, but I will have to see how finances are.

G'day All. To those in the group who are concerned about not having power on this week-end  I have a plan........there are some in the group who have small generators and I have a large 6 kva generator that will power up several caravans . I will also bring the gas bbq and put on a free Sausage Sizzle again ;D ;D, also the plan is to use camp-ovens cooking for Saturday night....Roast...Stews.....Damper.....may be a drink and great company ........How good is that dosse. |

Sounds GREAT!
We can also bring our gas barbie for snags, but maybe we could do camp fire barbie instead of gas.
Do they supply firewood? We probably would bring Propert as it's set up for 12v, so would'nt be able to bring firewood this trip apart from a few bagfuls in back of car. Sure will ring the camp oven..

We are hoping to come for our first outing in Kenny - there is just the minor thing of shift work getting in the way that weekend, so just have to get around that and we will be there.

G'day beau Would be great if you bring that lovely little family of yours down off the mountain and join us again ....don't be to concerned about the feral in the photo's I would be more worried about how you would tow your van back up the mountain with that mer.....-ben.  . dosse PS I know you have other tow cars. |

G'day Dosse! Hope you and Ilse (and your savage guard dog)are well, we have been busting to catch up with you guys again, but dates seem to keep clashing. Next time you are in lennox heads Fi will be in cairns and I have been looking into Flannagons but it looks like we pretty much would have to drive to brissy and then back to Flannagons or down through woodenbong then up to Flannagons. Makes it a Loooong drive with the Kids. Anyhow it will happen sooner or later Hows the bedford going? any progress? Just about got the benz sorted now, waiting for it to come back from the panel shop, got a stabilizer kit for the van now, tows great....  ;D |

this place ticks all the box's for our group and less than 2 hours drive from Brisvegas in the Rathdowney area at the foot of Mt Maroon
