Sounds good!
Will pop in if I can but that's the weekend we get the new house so things might be a little manic. We'll also have a 2 week old bub (give or take) by that point and I think the mother-in-law will be here from the UK as well........could be good excuse to leave them alone for some quality mother/daughter/grandbub time I think!

Yep, will be taking the gazebo. Did you see the bbq's?
Not sure about BBQs, but with current fire restrictions would recommend use of gas.
Maggie will walk through on the w/end and report back.

Gas is out during a total fireban anyway.
I believe they electric in parts of the park.

You mean that I actually need to clean my JK? The bush pinstripes are a badge of honour to me!
It doesn't have to shine to win dan can't waste all that hard earned striping

Gas BBQ's are okay, as I posted in the Canberra weekend;
From NSW RFS Website - Total Fire Ban Rules
During a Total Fire Ban no fire may be lit in the open and all Fire permits are suspended. This includes incinerators and barbecues which burn solid fuel, e.g. wood or charcoal.
Can I use an electric barbeque?
You can use an electric barbeque for cooking as long as it is under the direct control of a responsible adult, who is present at all times while it is operating, and no combustible material is allowed within two metres at any time it is operating.
Can I use a gas barbeque?
You can use a gas barbeque under the following conditions:
It is under the direct control of a responsible adult, present at all times while it is operating;
No combustible material is allowed within two metres at any time it is operating;
You have an immediate and continuous supply of water; and
o The barbeque is within 20 metres of a permanent private dwelling such as a home;
o The barbeque is within a picnic area and the appliance is approved by Council, National Parks or State Forest
Dave
PS, believe the last two points mean either within 20 metres of a private dwelling OR in a picnic area
Yep it's the very last point gets us over the line. Thanks Dave
It is under the direct control of a responsible adult, present at all times while it is operating;

I believe there is some taps around the BBQs

Do we park at the picnic area or is there a designated parking area and then we have to walk in?
Do we park at the picnic area
Do you mean to just drive over stuff until we get to a spot that looks ok? ;)
