I'm pushing it up hill with a pointy stick at the moment, just punched out another 19 hour day, pretty over it at the moment.. One day off in two months and 80 - 90 hour weeks, I've missed two day trips, hopefully not a third adventure.. However, I'm pretty sure Ursos wants his kitchen finished... Will let you know later next week what I'm doing, but I think I need a couple of days off, may end up coming up Saturday.

Unreal!!!! You worker!!!
I'm sure Ian is more concerned about your health than his kitchen.
He wouldn't want you doing 19 hr days & no days off.
See you Friday arvo.


HEY STEVE , it's next weekend not this weekend.

It looks like a huge improvement in the weather from Friday.
Looks like we will have cracking weather like most cup weekends in Vic.

Another shift in the weather predictions, nice Friday & sat, then maybe some showers around from Sunday.....
You know the weather is ways perfect in Dargo?
All the bad weather goes around each side of the hills.
Well that's what the publican says :???:

Bring on Thursday night that all I have to say. I had better make sure I am packed and ready to leave with you on Friday morning ####. Still deciding if we take the swag or Tvan. We are still having to head home on Sunday afternoon.

Hi All,

Got probs at work, so can't get there Fri nite now, & may not have Mon off (looking grim) So i'll try to get up to Talbotville around 9am ish sat morning, but may have to leave Sun arvo, but it's better than not going.

Cheers,

Steve

Please throw in the chainsaw.
As the tracks will have just re opened its more likely we will find trees down.
That being said, the tracks should be well driven by the time we get to them.

C u then.

Unfortunately, work and family commitments mean I'll not be able to make it this weekend. Have fun and look forward to hearing how things go.

Hi All,

I am considering coming this weekend, but as I have never been to the area, how easy is it to get in to Tabotville with a Camper (Tvan)?
And which tracks do I take from Dargo?

My aim is to get familar with the area and check out the Dargo High Plains Rd through to the Great Alpine Rd, as that is the route I need to escape from, so I can head to Rydal (near Lithgow), NSW at the end of the GTG.

Please advise.

Stuart

Hi Stuart,

Plenty of people take camper trailers into Talbotville, you can get a car in via the main track in.
Cheers

Hi Stuart,

You just keep heading north up Dargo high plains rd, once you go up up up, you will come to grant junction, about 18klms from Dargo pub.
You need to turn left there on mc millans rd. follow that 2wd road in all the way & you will run into Talbotville, it's around 14klms on the dirt & a slightly steep decent mainly one way road so be carefull.
There are several other routes into Talbotville that I think you can take an offroad camper trailer but that would be the most simple.

When should we expect you?
