    Cheers, Ben.
    I would agree can't have too many chainsaws.
    Fire or fires? Quite a few nights in Talbotville, we will need to do some serious firewood collecting.
    I'd suggest we pick up whatever we can on the way back from drives. How warm do you want to be?

      Is there a recommended fridge setup? Should I use the 60l for beer and 40l for food or are we always close to shops such that I can afford to sacrifice important space for cheese, dips and prawn skewers?

        Sorry to back to back posts, but on an unrelated matter, should I paint the underside of my carport?

          We will not be near shops - 2 fridges is a good idea if you have them.
          The first night or 2 will be in Mansfield. after that Dargo is the closest supplies to Talbotville. 1 hr away.

            Dargo really only has the essentials, a pub and a general store that is reasonably well stocked with the basic supplies. It also has both diesel and unleaded and a workshop that you can use if you are stuck mechanically.

              In the vehicle requirements thread there is mention of joining a 4WD club and obtaining training. Can you recommend any in Victoria?

                I say leave it unpainted, sounds like you've been worked to the bone! I just love it when white collars get a taste of reality!

                  Where are you in Victoria? That will make a big difference as to what club. If you are on the east or south east of Melbourne I can suggest one, but no idea for the rest of the state

                    I believe the Kaka Latte Club is currently recruiting! Stevejau also has some informative blogs up at the moment which are good for a read, so long as you don't drive a Nissan! Not sure about decaf and hazelnut varieties this band of comic misfits are pedalling though!

                    On a serious note the Werribee 4x4 proving ground I believe offer training, you could maybe look in to this or through fwdvic.

                    Cheers JPH

                        • Not quite cold enough to snow, just drizzle. There's snow on the ground though and snow is forecast for tomorrow

                              • Hello,

                                The go is, you might want a day or days of relaxing, doing nothing (day off).
                                Depending on weather we will change it around a little if need be.
                                I hope that answers your question.

                                Do you have a moment for a quick servey? I will only take 2 minutes.
                                On a scale of 1 to 5, 1 being excellent, 5 being poor;

                                How would you rate the time it took to get a response?
                                How helpfull was the response?
                                Would you ask a question here again or refer a friend?
                                Press # if you don have time.

                                Thank you.
