You'd swear he was asking about camping on the plaestinan border..

The locals there are probably easier to reason with

Safety in numbers, I like it.

And West Dubbo can't be too bad, g/f's house is only 5 minutes down the road from Windale, so I've seen it all.

If i come along, no doubt i'll be camping too. I will probably bring two tents, or set up a tent for my belongings and sleep in the car lol

Or car will stay on trailer, which is chained to sleeping bag

Cheers,

In terms of a trip from Sydney, I think meeting at Blacktown Maccas again is probably the way to go.

Stitty, let me know if you want to run this cruise again, you know it better than anyone.

Fill your sleeping bag with leaves etc to appear full. Sleep in a tree in a nearby paddock. Saved the original invading white folk a lot of times in the past.

Though your more likely to awake spooning some old gin that decided you were warm and comfy than to get speared these days.

Seriously, if you can get into the matilda - do it. It is 90% of the Toyota Nats experience.

I'm with Matt on this one - if i couldn't get accomadation at the matilda, i wouldn't bother going....

As for cost - grab a few mates and share it.
economy room at 108 a night, 3 nights... grab 2 mates, split it 3 ways $108each which is probly about the same as you will spend on fuel. and it will probly cost you $20 a night to camp...

so its only $50 more to not have to set up your tent, pack up you tent - reset it up at home to dry it out cos it rained before you packed up..... plus all the social side is at the matilda..... so you will probly end up travelling back and forth... some one cant drink etc etc

Cheers

If anyone has a good samaratin moment and would be willing to book a room for me, I'd be very grarteful - I understand the booking is card for security purposes only and cash on arrival.

I'd ordered a debit card on monday for this exact resaon but don't know if it will get here before the rooms sell out. I can ring up and transfer the security of the room onto my card once I receive it, more than likely tomorrow or early next week.

If anyone can help that would be awesome, I'd want one of the standard rooms (1 queen sized bed, one single) as there's two of us.

Pm me if you can help out, greatly appreciated and I can shout you a beer or six at the Matilda, although I suspect there'll be no shortage of alcohol

I'm making a holiday out of it with the g/f, time off work etc so I'm not worried about not being with the rest of the crowd, not entering cars anyway so it's more just a normal holiday that just happens to be on the same time as a car show.
