So the countdown is on. 2 weeks to D Day! With all the big ticket items taken care of we're down to making the really important decisions, like how many crab pots to put on the roof and which fishing rods to take. The roof of the Patrol is now 3/4 loaded with:
- Spare tyre for the patrol
- Spare spare tyre for the camper (same stud pattern as the patrol)
- Exhaust jack
- Spare Water container
- Spare esky
- Crab and yabbie pots
The last things to go on top are the crab and yabbie pots.
I'm happy to say that all my sewing jobs jobs are now completed (last 2 things today were the crab pot bag and a couple of "socks & jocks" organisers for the kids) and Daz is has just waiting for a bigger battery charger and a spare number plate for the camper to arrive (the number plate is to go on the back of the rubbish bin that hangs off the the tyre on the back of the camper). Final job for the day was to re-pack the fishing tackle boxes and the Medical kit.

| Big decisions being made - Which fishing rod to take? |

| Engle is rigged on the drop Slide. The little Waco is our freezer. |
So we're nearly there. Remaining on the list of things to do (roughly) is:
- Pack food boxes & fridges,
- Pack clothes
- Get kids school work
- Clean out the pantry
- Mow the Lawn
- Vote (local council elections)
Thought this was meant to be a holiday !?!
