OK so i toyed with the idea and i'm still working on the misses, but i really want to travel down on Sat arvo, swag over night with my kids and watch the last day of the event. My problem is though i really want to sleep somewhere OK not just the bush.

Pr evilly is booked as you'd expect has anyone got any other suggestions? Really will need toilet/blocks. I'm thinking to just park the car, pull out the awning and swag under that with kids..Will buy meals and be off on Sunday early ish as will spend the day at the point

Big Swell is predicted so could be exiting event

you could try in the bay at Gracetown.

They let all the wicked campers get a way with it so why not a family for a night.

Otherwise down at Contos or Borranup

Hey JB- I stayed at prevelly Caravan Park last weekend for the start of the Margies Pro. Did pretty much what you said, pulled out an awning and set up a tent. Just walked down the road to the comp. Park was pretty full though, not sure if they would have vacancies. Cost us $50 a night for a powered (not that we needed it) site.

Edit- Just re-read that prevelly is already booked out. My bad..

Haha, haven't done anything with the license yet I think i'll go double or nothing but was hanging out for this weekend or even Easter if i can before i make my play, just in case i get pinged on a longer trip..(thats how it often happens for me[}:)])

But i've discovered cruise control and best bit have taken my petrol usage to a all new low..Im getting nearly 100 km at least better for a 180 litre tank.

I get it now Geez Doggie what is that green tinge above your last post? It's been some time since I've seen that, thought you requested for them to disabled.
